Don't know if they will interchange, but many parts stores have or can get the 
drive units.  Just verify the direction of rotation, they make them for starters 
that turn either way.  If you have a 4 or 4 1/2 inch grinder you might be able 
to clean up the teeth.  I've never done it on a starter drive, but have done it 
on the flywheel when the teeth got worn on the end and caused the starter to lock.

Also when it locks hard try just loosening the bolts and rocking it.
