Help I broke the carb

I have a Eska 3.5 model 14207a, tecumseh carb with number 642-31b. I believe its 1983 or 1984.

While pulling off the gas line, the inlet nipple on the carb snapped off. The fuel shut off valve didnt feel like it was turning so easy either. Was going to clean the carb since wasnt running good at all but now Im looking at other options. So I went looking for replacement parts and not having much luck.

There are whole replacement carbs on amazon for less than 20 bucks for similar small engines but not sure what replacement numbers Id be looking for or if any would even be a match. Im pretty sure the same carb was used on all Eska models 3.5 to 7hp for most of the years they were in business. I did find one website that had the nipple, called "cover assy valve" but out of stock or no longer in production.

Any help finding a carb or parts would be much appreciated!
