Default NOOO Headlight motor shot again...please read

My headlight has broke again. All I need is this metal piece that goes through the gear. If anyone has a broken motor lying around and doesnt need this piece can you let me know?....or if you know where to get one. Thanks guys (96 LT4/ 3rd gen light btw)

Damn. What amount of torsional force is your motor subjecting that shaft too? Have you lubed the innards real good with lithium grease?

Yeah Ive tried everything....the problem is that the metal pin sticking through that metal lip that the arrow is pointing to has come loose. For some reason its not all one piece that pin is grooved inside the metal lip and it has worn out. Cheap Cheap design. So now I need that whole metal piece the lip and pin together. I cant find them sold anywhere..figure someone might have one laying around or something.
