I was wondering if anyone could tell me what this part is called and, even better, what the part number might be (if it is even available).
There is a rubber block (bushing?), that is not clearly shown on the right side where the longitudinal regulating shaft goes in, that crumbled apart on my way home from work today.
I'm planning to give Phil a call in the morning as well, but I thought I'd try to get a jump on it here. I'd like to try to find this part in time to have a Saturday (3/19) delivery (good luck, right?), but any help at all would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks very much,
Chris

EDIT: I'm looking at the manual (30-300 Adjusting Throttle Linkage) and the part appears to be called an Angle Lever.

EDIT: Replaced previous diagram taken from manual and replaced with one found in EPC. Item #206 is the correct part (#A6170703622).
