Is there anyone who knows the part number for the pin/shaft with plastic pressure tap that you rotate when you lock down the floppy disk by turning the handle?
From a 1571 manual I have a possible hint of "Disk Eject Lever C 252050-01" but that might only be the outside plastic part that you hold and turn.
Or other part number for an identical non-C= Alps drive.
(I'd say it is very close to 6,7cm long.)
Or even better, somewhere you can buy one.
