Dead Monorail Motor?

While at BrickFest this past weekend my Airport Shuttle took a detour from
the elevated (about 44 studs off the surface of the table) monorail track
across the NCLTC section of the layout to the floor.  While we have had
monorail "incidents" numerous times during NCLTC shows, we have never had
anything break.

As a result of this fall, my motor suffered a casualty but one that I
believe is easily repaired IF I can find the piece.  The monorail motor is
comprised of twomajor pieces.  The motor unit (the white part) and the base
(the black part).  The base has two hinged pieces, each of which connects to
the tab on the end of the monorail chassis plate.  One of these hinges broke
on my motor.  Fortunately the hinge piece is easily removed from the rest of
the base (it slips over a small pin on either side).

I am seeking one of these hinge pieces or a dead monorail motor from which I
can pilfer the part in question.  Can anyone help me out?  Reportedly this
piece is available on BrickLink however I was unable to find it.  If anyone
knows what it is called and point me to it on BL I would also be greatful.

Thanks,

Mike

There is one seller in the UK with an incomplete motor listed (it's missing one of the clips that (...) (20 years ago, 18-Aug-04, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
