Max Merritt advertises themhttp://www.maxmerrittauto.com/ Kanter probably has it too -- but if yours is only slightly twisted, no sign of anything sheared then probably can keep using. I had a 56 Patrician where it was twisted about 1 spline and still worked fine. Just put the limit switches back, adjust properly, and take it easy. Any sign of cracking or tearing, another story.
If you do get a new one, try to get one for your year if you can (55 is part # 445850). The difference is in 56 this piece has a spline removed to provide an index point. The limit switches in 56 are internal to the compensator & operated by a cam so orientation is important for that setup. I THINK but won't swear to it, the 56 piece will fit a 55 but not the other way around.
