sounds like you taking about something else, must be an older style

Answer 2

If you're talking about the places in the motor that the cables hook to, that would either be the shift linkage, or the throttle linkage, depending on which cable it is. If the part that broke is in the control itself, I believe those are called cams, but not certain, however, if the broken part is in the control box, you'd be better off trying to find a good, used set of controls w/cables, or, new cables shouldn't run over $25.00 each, depending on the length you need.
