Fuel pod valve

I recently picked up a 650 gallon fuel pod and have spent the last two days inside of it cleaning it out with aluminum brite acid wash and a scrub brush. In the process of shimmying myself through the baffle to the front half of the tank I fell into the shutoff valve linkage and broke the cast ring off the top of the valve stem. I was thinking I may be able to cross drill the valve stem and run some stainless wire through it as a fix or something of that nature. I would prefer to just replace the valve entirely though. Anybody know if it is a commercially available part, or does anyone have a good one laying around from a bad tank or something?
