3D printing

Correct, if they have, or can create, a model of it. Since you have the cracked part they should be able to scan it.
I've kinda sorta wanted a 3d printer for ~20 years. I still don't have one because 1 - not cheap for something decent enough to really be useful, and 2 - I don't really have a need. Every once in a while I something comes up where I think one would be handy but there is always an alternative. Might be fun to play with though.

I’d think your best bet is what Mark suggested. They’ll need to scan the part first. It’s not gonna be cheap. You’ll want to make sure they can use a material and color that would match too.
This is random… I was in a room with 30 3D printers this afternoon. The CFO of an engineering firm called me and asked me to come see her print setup and see if I could build a remote room for 120 of the identical 3D printers the company runs. They look like an array of cubes. I built their 40ksf facility here. Their printers are smaller, like 2’ cubes. They 3D print cities and run wind analytics on their models.
