I'm not sure what's going on with PMs - possibly it's because my account is too new.
I'm thinking that's what I'll do if buying the part doesn't work out. In my case the hose and metal fittings are intact, only the check valve/nipple is broken.

I did a quick look and didn't find any of my spare check-valve sections on top. It would be too much digging to find them. Sounds like just the plastic nipple on the check valve snapped off. That is common and could easily happen on a used one you source. You could do like me and others. On one, I cut it flush, drilled a tight hole for a small copper tube to serve as a nipple. To be safe, I epoxied it in. Worked for years until I found a pristine one at the salvage yard when picking other stuff.
