These are alwys plentiful on EBay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7921053938&category=33703
As Yal said, I'd be very surprised if the one pictured doesn't have a shaft, it's just not in the picture. I replaced mine in my 380SE. Miserable job, took over an hour and a half! I had to take out the wood trim piece over the shifter (easy), then unscrew the stem from the socket at the base (easy), then hold the damn socket upright with my finger against the really stiff spring while attempting to thread the new shaft into it, which was bent slightly so it turned like a bent bolt (that's where the hour went!). You'll be swearing a blue streak if it's set up on the 190 like mine is....and from the looks of it, it is:
