Looking for a barber haul snatch block

Recently while doing some spirited reaching, one of the jib sheet snatch blocks which attach to the barber haul line parted and the openable half went overboard.

Upon inspection of the remains which were still attached to the barber haul line it was obvious that the black material of the body which parted had been cracked for some time. I suspect sun damage was the culprit in weakening the material.

Where may I obtain a replacement? I haven't seen anything similar in the Ronstan line.

Thanks,

Steve B.

I just found an exact replacement from Annapolis Performance Sailing, although I'll have to reuse the sheet block and pin. Should be an easy fix.
