Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Gearhead for ST 385 UT 15084, splined shaft, gearhead

Question
Hello John.  On my homelite St385 which I got working thanks to you,  the splined shaft broke off in the gearhead (I was abusing it cutting large bamboo).  Do you know where I can find a reasonably priced new/used gearhead?  The shaft I can still get from Homelite but they
ve discontinued the gearhead assembly.  Regards, Ed Kersey 870-235-9238
