Thanks. Great lead. They had it in stock for $43. Hell of a deal for a new piece. Now to get the bad one out of the motor. Probably not going to be as easy.

You might as well change it. You are probably going to have to pull the tilt tube and put it on a press to get it out. And it usually means the tilt tube is pretty rusty. You can get a good used stainless tube off eBay for around $30
