Default Need source for Differential Spider Gears P/N 19180959

I'm really in a bind and could use some guidance...

I am rebuilding a stock 2000 corvette 6 spd differential and one of the spider gears looks like it should be replaced. GM doesn't make them anymore and the part number 19180959 has been discontinued. Called GM, corvette shops, differential shops, etc and nobody can help.

-Does anyone have a secret source for these gears and the conical washers that go with them?
-Could there be an equivalent that is used in another model of car?
-Anybody have a lead on a used source?

I appreciate any help I can get here!

Also, would the spider gears from a C6 fit? Are there any particular years to stick with? Maybe I can expand my search a little bit.

Thanks everyone. I did end up buying a used differential to harvest the spider gears from since I was running short on time, but I may still give Rick a call. If he's able to source new parts, I'd much rather do that!
