Convertible top ball joint snapped off piece of top frame!

Hey good people, newb here needing some assistance. New-to-me 2000 S Tip clamshell works but top only manual.

Poking into it today found both top pushrod red sockets busted, but also the driver’s side ball joint mount is snapped off!

Is this part of the top frame replaceable? If so, anyone know what the part is called, or have a diagram or a part number?

Thanks in advance! Bill

There are a couple of good folks on the parts subforum that may be able to source that part for you. Itsnotanova (semi-retired) and D Fenswick.
