Default ELV with bad MCU

Hey all! I really really messed up bad here... this isn't the first time I have had to pay for my lack of patience. I have recently come into possession of a 2008 Cayenne Turbo with an ELV failure (shocker). The previous owner gave me an emulation board that required you to swap the MCU and connector. Upon doing so, I damaged the MCU. I am now wondering where I should go from here. To my understanding, the best route would be to find a married KESSY and ELV/Column from another vehicle, then get it paired with my ECU/DME. Problem is that this doesn't seem like an easy task to find them together. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know. I can go on about how terrible of a design it is that these parts are technically unserviceable, and the dealership will happily charge you $5,000 to fix it, but I'm not going to. I'm just looking for semi-affordable solutions so I'm not totally in the hole. See attached photo for damaged MCU. TIA
