There should be a part number associated with that part, once you get that can search it easy enough. Perhaps it’s in LRcat?

No doubt the items were obsolete long ago 
It's item 15 in this link:
Described as a 'bush'.
Land Rover part number MWC2707
Used from VIN number DA to end of Classic production.
A very quick google doesn't raise much hope as it shows as 'out of stock' for UK listings & I think discool is correct.
Couple of hits for USA listings but you'll need to email them.

Essentially all OEM trim items have been obsolete for years & stocks run down with the aftermarket filling the gaps in some cases, but generally it's of poor quality.
As for service items I decided to treat mine to new ign. components last year, plug & leads were no problem but the distributor cap & rotor arm were such rubbish that I cleaned up my original 'made in England' Lucas items & returned the new stuff for a full refund .. the supplier didn't argue, I guess that's all they can source these days.
Thankfully mechanical components & rotating electrics for the Classic are still generally available, but again the quality is variable & basically you get what you pay for.
The good news, considering how much of a rot-box the Classic can be, is that body repair panels/sections are generally available.

Agreed, the p38 is slowly suffering the same issues.

If there are no parts available indefinitely then time to adapt and overcome. Make your own with what you can get hold of or adapt what’s there. Original is nice but functional is more imperative
Wonder if this helps in any way

If the parts are just plastic bushes, they could be made from plastic using an electric drill as a lathe.
That’s great idea mate for the OP
