Auto Spring Cover - Source?

In a recent discussion I saw the attached photo of a spring cover on the No.1 clutch of an Auto. I've got a 390 Auto that has some trauma to the inside to the left case undoubtedly due to a previous spring failure. I'd like to avoid that in the future if possible.

Does anyone know how to get one of these spring covers?

Thanks!

You are right I never seen it in any parts books. I found out about it on this forum about a year ago and have been looking for one since then.I'll bet there is someone out there that has some.

Are these spring cover the same with the differents AE models
( 360,390,420, 430 , 500) ?

Saw a bunch of NOS auto stuff on E-Bay. Seller goes by TriTrophy. He bought a bunch of old dealer stock here in the Pacific Northwest. Not affiliated just the messenger

A) To me NOS means dealer stock not new old aftermarket stuff. I have no reason be believe that the item this thread is about was ever dealer stock. I can assure you no dealer I went to ever offered to sell me one.

I did buy that little screen the cam chain on the four stroker wipes out used for reasonable but if you look at his listings one stops calling your parts pile the cookie jar and use the term jewelry box instead.

I would expect the springs to be in the same location relative to the center hole. Whether you really want to ride the thing not knowing exactly the relative sizes of the spring pieces and likelyhood of the little piece escaping. With the added bumps for the water pump on the ones I have had break nothing terribly bad happened between when the spring broke, I realized something wasn't right and I shut it off at a stop.
