Any automotive machine shop will have this. Machinist will likely have to drill out the broken bolts but will be able to repair it with Helicoil inserts (hopefully). Worth it for a part you can't get anymore. Good luck!

Vancouver persons; do you have any recommendations of shops that would do this? Otherwise, I'll try yellow pages. Thanks all, Tom
