There's at least three sources, and 4 courses of action:
1 http://www.heatercontrolvalve.com/
2 http://www.heatervalves.net/
3 Old Air Products will rebuild your core and re-plate the mounting bracket.
4 You can disassemble and replace the seal yourself. - https://www.napaonline.com/en/p/BK_6601000
The capillary tube, from the valve to the mounting plate at the bottom of the box, is often broken. While it is neat to have it work, just having the control cable well adjusted to close correctly - not too tight, not too loose - is the important part.

I had mine rebuilt by Jim Tucker. He is in Valley Center CA. I believe he still does them. Here is his phone number. 760 749 3488
He can rebuild yours for about a 100 bucks. You won't be disappointed and a quick turn around.

You're welcome! Wisconsin Weather is what it is. My snow blower gas won't be turning to varnish anytime soon. The weather people are promising a record snowfall for our area. We already broke previous records and it is supposed to snow all day today. Gotta Luv it.
