Default Trans linkage/shift cable mount question

I'm looking for a part and hopefully someone can tell me if/where i can find it. I need the spherical post that the shifter cable pops into on the trans shift lever. My car had it removed to install the sequential shifter and it's mia. Looks like it just presses into the lever. thanks

I was looking to see if the ball end part itself was replaceable. To replace that whole arm i'm sure the trans needs to be disassembled. Looks like i'm gonna order a gas spring bracket that has a similar end and rip it apart.

so for anyone else who may be in the same predicament this is how i solved the problem. I ordered a ball mount bracket from mcmaster carr as the ball mount is very close to the size i needed. Looks like the original ball mount that's on the car is installed and then the end is peened over and is not pressed in like i thought. I cut apart the new bracket and sanded down the ball mount till it fit snuggly in the shift selector arm and tack welded it in place and it's as good as new! Didn't take any pics of the process, just leaving the info here for the next lucky person.http://www.mcmaster.com/#9512k61/=zw91db
