I pulled my strings and received a special delivery of a replacement out 
of their lab, belonging to a scrapped oscillator. Keep the original 
since the label of crystal parameters sits on it.

However, I don't expect everyone to be able to get that treatment. I was 
simply lucky in this instance.

Anyway, what you could do is ask where you can find a suitable 
replacement. So far, they have been quite supportive when I ask 
questions on schematics and manuals for old products.

Cheers,
