GoWesty has them. I had to replace mine, too, when I got my westy.
It's been some years, but I seem to remember having to use a hair
dryer to get the putty loose enough to unscrew the assembly (what I'm
saying here is that the new one is an improvement of sorts over the
old one, or at least the lower half won't screw into the upper part,
so you'll have to unscrew that whole thing from the stainless steel
drain. If you find somebody with an unbroken original part, you can
simply take the trap apart by the thumbscrews and replace the bottom
half). Be sure to pick up some plumber's putty to seal the drain back
in the sink. The replacement came with new hose.
