Default Having trouble finding a camshaft.

Hi Guys

I am in the middle of rebuilding my motor in the (1972) 911TE. It has the mechanical fuel injection on it, but as i was tightening the nut on the end on the camshaft i did it up too tight and broke the end of the camshaft off, silly mistake to make i know and i am really really cheesed off but i'm stuck now.
The part number is 911.105.133.0R. This is not the usual part number for a standard shaft so i'm not entirely sure what to do?
Is it aftermarket, could it be superseded by a new part number or could i just buy a set of standard cams as the pistons are standard?

I really dont know what to do and i need some help on this one please.

Regards

Jeff

I forgot to mention it is the left side camshaft.

I was also wondering if the shaft is repairable?

Hello I have a buddy in the UK whom I recently sent a set of cam carriers with an extra set of 2.4T
injection cams,he's in france on holiday at the moment but I could possibly reach him and see if he'd be willing to sell it to you upon his return in a week or so...Bert
