Default Need help finding coolant tank

Does anyone have a part number, or know where I can get a NEW coolant overflow tank that the battery hold-down isn't broken on? I found plenty of them locally but they are ALL broken, and the dealer has no idea WTF I'm talking about.

I'm tired of trying to makeshift a battery hold down when I go to the track. I just want it to work like its supposed to.

On mine the back part is broke so there is nothing for the battery to butt up against. Ordered one just now hopefully it will be here by the time I have to put my cooling system back together.
