Need a part

Did a dumb thing and accidentally grounded my M38A1's electrical system when removing the horn contacts. I thought it might have burned a wire somewhere but I found that the 4 prong connector in the 24V regulator took the hit. Part of the connection on the back of the plug is burned and I don't think it can be repaired. Does anyone know of a place where I can order a replacement plug? Or does anyone have a takeout part? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

What kind of regulator is it?

Mechanical or solid state?

Regulator

Sorry I didn't mention the make. The regulator is an Autolite 24V 25A mechanical VBC-4002UT. The "breadbox" style.
