Reed plates should be dirt cheap. Try placing an ad on aomci.org's free webvertize and I guarantee you someone will have one. Or try laingsoutboards.com, they will have one for sure but be more expensive than the aomci members. Ever thought about some JB weld on the reed plate, and sanding?
Good luck,
JBJ

Placed a want ad on Webvertise - we'll see what happens!

Do you have a photo of the damage or at least the reed plate?
