Air leak Newell 1970 -

Hi Everyone,
I have a problem with my air brake ( midland ) I had an air leak at my manual control, Now it turned out that the black piece was broken and therefore no longer closed. I have no idea what it is called, but I would like to order a new one together with the appropriate seal.
Who knows where I could order this ?

Pieter,
I am assuming you are talking about the valve and knob that release the parking brake?

Given the era of your coach, you may have to replace with a modern day equivalent.
If I am wrong and this valve has a different purpose, please advise.

The image with the black cap goes into a conical cylinder (with MIDLAND on it ). there is a simmer ring around the black cap. If this is no longer available, I will have to install a modern version. Maybe I can have someone make such a cap with a 3D printer, I thought to myself yesterday
