I ordered one from the appliance parts section at Sears.com (there's
more for your f***** life at Sears!! as Tim Allen used to say back in
his less than squeaky clean days) Think it was about $18. You need a
large socket for one; 1 1/16" or 27mm seems common.
I checked the local big boxen and plumbing suppliers and got funny looks
like "No, why would you mess with that!? Just replace the whole tank
every 8 years."
This web site has lots of good info. And they sell parts, if you don't
mind paying seriously high prices for their convenience factor:
