The drive thingy (if you mean what Moss call 'sleeve assembly p/n
549-580) is available (there may even be an improved design out
there).

In any case, you can fake that, leastways I did.  Back when these were
NLA I repaired mine by jamming the thing with strips of tire tube
rubber, then pressing it together.  Got a replacement when someone
(Steve Hedke?) finally developed one but have never bothered to pull
the starter and install it as the inner tube fix still works after 20+
years.
