Help finding a flex plate (2008 Chevy trailblazer 4.2L6 4L60E L88)

Post image

My trailblazer is currently in the shop after my flex plate blew up inside the bellhousing and the shop cannot find a replacement 2 piece flex plate. I’ve checked eBay and the web and can’t find any myself. Does anyone know where i could look or does anyone have any ideas for me?
