Actually, I had no problem ordering a 74-39202-01 from
DECdirect (1-800-DIGITAL).  The price was very reasonable
(compared to what I feared!)

You also need four mounting screws, of course - DEC
part number 90-09984-07 - but these are just your
ordinary garden variety mounting screws that you can
get anywhere.
