anyone bent back a bent brake lever?

by 'cold set' you mean bend it back as is right? no heating etc..??

Sorry, just seen this - yes, I'd do it cold, hold the pivot section in soft jaws in a vice and bend the lever by hand, you shouldn't need any additional leverage.

you are all thinking too much. 2-3 seconds with a seatpost and its done.

Agreed. I've even bent back worse than the OP's one by hand on the trail after a spill.
 
Eh-hem....not had a chance yet......pics will follow whatever the outcome. Busy with my other build!
