I didn't have trouble finding a good quality replacement about 10-13 years ago.   Seemed to be plenty of NOS and good American replacements then.  Try Vickers(Vickel???, Vikel??)  - where I ultimately bought mine - or Central Fuel Injection - both in Iowa.   I have been to both.  Central is a pretty big business and they may have already burned through all their good American stock and they may be left selling cheaper Chinese replacements too.    I think Vickers  Oliver may be out of business.  I tried to call a few years ago and got no answer and no return call to my voicemail. The old man was old when I met him 20 years ago and the nephew/grandson helping him didn't seem entirely enthusiastic about the business model :-). Again I am not very sure about the name. It might be some close variation of Vickers.
