FWIW, the easiest way to find out if somebody has made (or has tried to make) replacement parts for anything that can be 3D-printed is to go to thingiverse.com with your web browser. And then search for whatever thing you need (search terms / words are a separate subject, try as wide or as many as have time for. When you find a part, look at pictures, comments, makes and so on to try to figure out if this is a working part or just something somebody has mad a 3D model of, and never tested.
