coolant recovery tank cap

Mine melted in an overheat situation after the v-belt died. Wondering if anyone knows where to source this part without buying the whole tank?
I looked and couldn't find one.

Thanks,

Ed, I believe this is what you need. Of course shipping costs will make this part much more expensive. https://www.westerbeke.com/Product/CAP/024858
Have you tried searching Amazon or an auto parts store to see if they have something comparable?

That’s the one! I searched for that part number and found 2 sources for it, deiselpartsdirect and westerbeke. No go on Amazon or eBay.
I ordered 3 for $1.50 and shipping was $16.50. Oh well. The only other thing I could find was the complete tank at $54.
Hopefully this won’t happen again anytime soon.%-)

Thanks for your help I really appreciate it.
