You can print one yourself. Download the extruder assembly from Sovol in the supports section (documents). It’s in ‘step’ format so you need to convert to stl.  
I modified it by making the connection ‘eye’ a little thicker. In the forum there’s no option to attach the file. I’ll upload to Thingiverse: Sovol SV01 fan duct, minor modification:

You can also search for other mods and see if you like one.

I should have modified it like you did. I actually printed one yesterday out of PLA. We’ll see how long it lasts. Ill save yours incase this fails. I did coat the area around the screw hole with some krazy glue to see if that can prevent it breaking in the future.

I use Petg for all my prints. Good luck.
