Looks like 35-910066-151, but will likely be hard to locate other than a junkyard or fabricating it. Textron does still list the part, but says to contact for lead time and pricing.
Why not just repair it?

thanks Ryan, I’ll try to locate it… unlikely to get a new one anytime soon, or at a reasonable price.

Umm…. Not sure if that can be “welded “ or how do you suggest it be repaired ? I’ll chat with the mechanic and see what he says.

Trim off old metal an rivet on fresh?
Welding is usually not an option due to the material used. But there are several options on how to repair it like a simple doubler to reconnect the 2 broken pieces all the way up to fabricating a new angle and riveting it on. It falls on whatever your mechanic is capable of or set up to do. Would definitely get it off the engine and see what you got before buying one.

Quit with the negative waves, man.
If you can find a EAA Chapter near you, for certain someone will know a metal fab wizard who could probably fix you up.
That's a fairly easy (and legal) riveted repair with a patch plate. Your A&P should know that.
Basically you cut a new piece to include the broken off section and extending an inch or so past the break, then rivet it on. AC43.13 describes such things.
