Do a search on eBay for "thepartsladi" for OEM optis.
Changing the optispark is not difficult at all. It's a matter of draining the coolant, removing the fans, removing the intake ducting, remove the water pump, pull off the pulley, then the optispark. I suggest you pick up a Haynes/Chilton's manual for easy R&R.
