Default M12, rear end question

Hello folks, I busted my casing on my rear end awhile back and just noticed the bottom ear of the trans adapter plate where it attaches to the rear end has broke off also. Any info on where to look for this part is? I've searched the tremec sight but I don't think the one they show is for a c5 vette. Thanks.

There are several transmission shops you can call and I'm sure they can help. Might start with RPM transmissions, but there are a number of others others.

The differential (rear end) is made by GETRAG. M12 is the option code for the Z06 6-SP manual transmission.

He's looking for the transmission adapter (extension housing) that fits between the transmission and the differential housing.
