Magneto Contacts Part

Does anyone have or knows where I can buy the diecast plate into which the movable points screw into, for a MO1L mag.
I have stripped the thread out in the plate and would like to replace the part or consider a complete contact set if you have one.

Re: Burgess air filter box

Thanks Ben, I have now modified my filter box by grinding and making the hole up onto the top. The rubber fits OK now so I will refit it, and hope nobody notices.

Re: Burgess air filter box

OK, still slightly confused, I assume from the replies, the second picture(yellow background) is the correct filter box. By modifiying my box (1st picture in black) to make a cutaway on the top of the box this will then fit, using the rubber bought from Draganfly?.
Does that sound right?
