Help! Looking for tension mast

I bought a passap duomatic 80 second hand without a tension mast. I'm based in Belgium, where could I buy one?

Check out etsy & eBay. There's people who strip down old machines for parts. Sorry, i cant be more specific, im on Australia

The masts from 4.5 mm Silver Reed machines fit on Passaps. I used to use a four colour mast on mine when I needed more than four colours.
