I agree with f4f. I would just leave the top alone and let it send up a new leader. I think your pot is fine for the next couple of years. I had mine in a pot for a few years before I planted it in the ground here in Zone 10b. It dropped dead here in my zone last winter, but I know they grow successfully in South Florida's Zone 10 and get huge eventually. By the way, the weeping growth habit is normal. Here was my Cananga in my greenhouse in 2005 (the date on the camera was wrong).
