It's a Mooney part so it's unlikely to find a new one unless some MSC has new old stock sitting on a shelf somewhere. Probably lots of used ones around removed from airplanes that have been upgraded to engine monitors. Have you tried eBay?  However, if I were to buy a used one, I'd send it out to a shop to have it overhauled anyway. It's not that expensive and then I'd know it was accurate.

When my MP/FF gauge died I could not find a replacement and no one had the parts to rebuild mine.  So I ultimately found Aerospace Logic (from a comment from someone here).   They also have a MP/FP that you are looking for, but I don't know which of the ones on this page would be for your plane...

BIG NOTE!!!!  One big down side of Aerospace Logic is that for what ever reason they did not get their device certified with anything other than THEIR Transducer AND it can only be connected to their device (really dumb).  So if you have a JPI or any other Fuel Monitor/Calculator this installation will require you to pull out the Transducer you've been been using and initially disable your fuel monitor.  My mechanic added a big piece of fuel line to make sure there were no Fuel Flow issues and then did whatever test he needed to do to sign it off.  So I got my JPI FF back, though the two don't match exactly.  Need to fly from one Apt enough so that I can fuel the plane in the same level or unlevel spot to accurately measure how much fuel I'm burning.  They're real close, but want to tweak them in even closer.
