when i need a part I go to the catalogue section of busted bus, cause it's easy to look at chris's layout to find the page of the parts fiche. (plus he's a great source for parts.) then i go to jerseylooker's parts fiche (you don't say if yours is an early or late bus), and get the part number. some are nla, but most are there.

so, page 058-00 has the diagram of the hand-brake (thanks to chris at busted bus). don gave you the two most likely parts numbers and some sources.
