Is there any that were ever ... |

I know this isn't a major item, but I'm trying to locate a Manual Operating Lever for Trico S583-1 Wiper Motor.
This was a short cast lever (paddle) on the early M38a1's.

In the manual it gives specs for the condenser, but not the coil.
It notes to test the coil, replace it with known good one to perform test.
