[AT] chain sprocket

Does anyone know of a source for sprockets for the old No. 55 stamped 
steel chain; that's what we always called it, the kind you hammer the 
links apart, or maybe there is a different name. I googled it as stamped 
steel chain and all I got was hundreds of roller chain sprockets. The 
chain on the tailings elevator on my pull type IH No. 82 combine  came 
off at least 25 times last year. I was in a hurry to get the beans off 
and didn't pay attention but upon looking today it appears the top 
sprocket is worn and the chain just jumps the teeth. I have been running 
way behind due to a bad back and should have looked as the beans will be 
ready by the end of the week. I am thinking maybe the teeth could be 
built up but its getting a little late for that type of stuff; again my 
own fault. I do have a parts machine but with my back it would take an 
act of congress to get to it and remove the part, and even then I am not 
sure of the condition of the used part. Any leads would be welcome. I 
don't know if case IH has the part but I very much doubt it and being 
the weekend have no way to check on it.
