David,
Unless you are a "purist" or luckily are able to find that connector in
a scrap yard,
you should be able to find a suitable replacement male/female set of
polarized connectors at an electrical supply house. It's possible that
Radio Shack would have something that will work.
All you really need is a male/female set that is so made that it cannot
be connected except in one manner, the correct way.
Good luck
