Hi Chris,
If you have no luck getting the part locally try
http://www.astroshop.eu/telescope-ac...s-spares/15_75 as they stock telescope parts, although I am not sure if they can get HEQ5 parts.
Alternatively, if you cannot find this part, you could take it to a machine shop and get a new one made. I am a machinist by trade and know that it isn't difficult to make a new part. I have done it myself often enough.
Cheers Peter
