Question Does anyone know this equipment

Hi all, just signed up, I recently bought a telescope with equatorial mount on Ebay, used it a couple of times and found the a plastic component withing the mount has failed, when you screw in to tighten the mount into position the plastic piece between the screw and the internal axel has broken, there are absolutely no markings anywhere on the telescope or mount to say who manufactured it, I was hoping someone might recognize it and tell me who might have made it or where I might get the broken piece replaced, I think the telescope was originally bought at a Dick Smith Store. I have attached pictures of the telescope, mount and broken piece.
