Default Headlight Adjuster Retainer?

On a 2002 Corvette, there is a black plastic bushing/retainer/clip at the forward end of the vertical adjustment jackscrew (the one that projects forward from the gearbox) that attaches the jackscrew to the headlight frame.
Does anyone know of a source or P/n for this? A previous thread referred to e-bay, but I can't find anything anywhere except for a complete very expensive headlight assembly . Thanks.

Absolutely NONE of those individual parts are available through the usual GM sources; assembly only.

You MAY find a source in the used parts arena, etc, and I would especially recommend calling Marc at Vettenuts.net. He is one of the BEST sources for HTF used Corvette parts.
