I am trying to purchase an anode part number 3852970 for sx drive inner cavity. I am told from my uk supplier that is shows up on computer as nla no longer available. Has it be replaced or no longer required.

Well I found it, but it's on an older lower unit than you should have. Do a google search for 3852970, I get several sites, but don't have a clue what you will see in the UK.

I spoke with a uk supplier and they say Volvo stopped making this part 10 years ago because if poor sales of the item. There is no replacement and they advise going to an anode store.
Any advice or something else that will fit.
It's a bar of zinc right?

Just forget it, Volvo did.
I would bet Volvo gave up on it because it didn't do any good, not because it wouldn't sell.
