25 HP 1957 Johnson/Evinrude/Gale Choke Solenoid

Does anyone know where I can find one of these? I bought a 1957 Gale See Bee and am in need of an electric choke solenoid. I have looked everywhere but am not sure which one I can get. Since this should be similar to the John/Rudes of the same year and same hp or 30hp. I figured I would ask in here as well and hope for a reply.

Thanks,

J.T.

1957 was the first year for 12 volt systems. Before that, ('56-30hp) they were 6 volts. The solenoid you need was used on a pile of different motors. The 12V part number is 376806. That is for the solenoid body only. The plunger and linkages are all separate parts.

Thanks. Sorry I posted this in here instead of waiting in my section...I found the part through Laing's and I got the plunger and linkages too.
