Looking for a small blue Stern auto plunge part... Anybody know where to find it?

It's the blue part, of this assembly: https://www.pinballlife.com/index.php?p=product&id=3601

I picked up a game that has the little blue plastic part snapped, but the assembly is otherwise fine. Trying to avoid spending the $40+ for this little piece if I can. Anybody know where to find it?? The part says 4-227 on it, but I haven't found anything with that code.

You can reuse the plunger by using a punch to tapout the roll pin far enough (but not completely!) to swap in the new link, then tap the roll pin back in.

Yup, that's what I do. I use a "roll pin punch" of the correct size and a vise. If the plunger is still in good shape, I reuse it.
