A new speedo gear is probably $8 from Bill Jenkins. A DMD is probably around $40 if you can't find a used one.

Also, if you got your 3L from an escape, the damper/crank pulley is the same as for the contour cougar and is interchangeable. If you got it from the tauraus/sable then it wont.

If you take a file to your damper pulley where the rib broke and make sure that it has no sharp upraised portions that will eat up the belt then you can use it. THat little bit of weight shouldn't hurt anything. As long as the remaining ribs are still straight and you take off the burrs it will work fine.
