Default Speedometer parts ?

Is there anyone around who might have a few parts or, yes, a lot of parts? I'm trying to find a round Rochester dial face, no trip type, and a Waltham part. What should be a matching square hole for the square end of the speedo cable ends up being worn round. The gear itself, as the rest of the unit works fine. I just need this item that threads into the back of this oval unit.
Thanks, Don

Don, Not sure if this what your looking for but anyway, There is a guy who advertises in our news letter who is a speedo repair guy. no name of person, in Wichita, KS Brattons and other sell some of the common speedo stuff but when you have the one off type, you have to dig a little.

put grease on the end of speedo cable fill the speedo hole with jb weld then push the square end of the cable in the jb weld and let it set up the grease will let the cable slip out, if nervouse leave the cable end in the jb weld just long enough to set up a little then remove the cable

Hi ford 1, Funny, but I had been contemplating that. I have not put magnifier glass to it yet. Looks kind of smooth inside for JB to grasp. I'll hope to find a part in the meantime as this is not a "hurry up" need
