Default Throttle Body Connector Sourcing

Anyone know where I can get this connector body? It’s off the throttle body. It’s not in the Ford catalog. My research shows it is a Denso connector. Has anyone crossed a Toyota or Honda successfully?

Also, anyone know where I can get the pin insertion and release tool? The old brittle plastic is crumbling otherwise.

You can get the connectors from the UK (Ebay):

TB 4 Pin - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Toyota-20...AAAOSwFL9Ttne3
TB 3 Pin - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Toyota-Le...oAAOSwOyJarQJ4
MAF 5 Pin - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Toyota-5-...oAAOSw241Yb~zF

You don't need any special tool to remove the pins. Just pry out the white plastic locking insert and, using a small flat screwdriver, find a thin black plastic locking tab deeper inside next to each pin, pry/bend it gently away from the pin as you pull on the wire. To insert pins, remove and keep the white locking insert out, push each pin in until you hear a click and then push in the white insert.
