Default V6 - Vis balance valve flap - broken axle

It seems my balance valve motor worked a bit too well as it has torn off the axle of the flap -as on attached photo. Does anyone have any idea how to fix it?

Or maybe anyone has this flap from a broken rattling inlet manifold kicking around?

Default Me too!

I've had the same problem exactly, the peg has sheared off.

Does anybody happen to have a spare flap available?

Thanks for the reply, however I did have a brain wave that might get me one. I'd forgotten V6 Land Rovers have the same manifold & VIS business.

My brother-in-law has a pair of Land Rovers he's always tinkering with so I'm presuming he has contacts & sources in the shadowy underworld of Land Rover owners. I've messaged him to see if he can come up with one for me.

Fingers crossed..
