You’re gonna need a hot air station. If it’s actually usb3 and not just usb in a c sized connector then you usually wont be able to do it with just an iron.
The process is:
Clean the site and all through holes (they won’t be for usb pins but instead for physical connection). Use flux.
Reapply solder to all surface mount pads.
Preheat the area.
Apply flux.
Manipulate the new port into place. If you can, tack it down at a few spots.
Reflow all the pins. Use flux.
Have you confirmed that the port itself isn’t damaged? The pads it connects to?
