Diesel gearboxes- replacement sources in/around Yorkshire???

Hi, I recently had my van converted to a Tdi using an AAZ engine from a Vento, however my 4 speed box has just gone and is totalled beyond repair.

Can anyone recommend a good place to pick a replacement in or around yorkshire? Im in Leeds.

Thanks. Ben
