Default S.U. carburetor

I have a 1969 Series 2 XK E with triple S.U. Carburetors.
on my middle Carb the stop for the mixture control adjusting screw has been broken off and the manual choke rod removed.
while Moss has the replacement rods and screws, the do not have the stop that attaches to the throttle shaft.
I contacted S.U. in the UK but they are on lock down and not really answering many queries.
Does anybody know of a North American supplier of S.U. parts.
sketch attached of the part in question

I believe the stop his held by a press pin thru the throttle shaft

I spoke to Joe Curt in New York, he has the stop and even the manual choke shoe and lifter that I need.
he seems a great source for classic Carburetors
He has lots of U tube how to videos videos on line.
