Default Camshaft bearing cap

While changing the tappets on my 2wd saphire i noticed that one of the camshaft bearing caps (No 8) on the inlet cam has a hairline crack in it.

Does anyone know where I can a spare from?

You'll have to try and find a second hand one I think. For most cars you cannot get caps separately as they are machined on the head and won't fit another head. Even with a second hand one you may need some machining done to get it to the right clearances.
