Does anyone have any ideas about a cheap place to buy just the motor and lens assembly for a Sony DSC-W1 digital camera short of buying a whole new one on eBay?

I have taken apart the camera and isolated the problem to the motor and lens unit, attached to the CPU by two harnesses, one for the motor and one for the photoreceptor. Part of one harness is torn, rendering the camera "stupid", which it is not if the harnesses are both disconnected.
