What to do when the part you need doesn't even have an OEM number? (lemmy.world)

I fucked up the threads on the brake caliper bracket, tried repairing it but didn't go well. Need another one but it doesn't even have an OEM number and I would need to get the whole set which is ridiculous. What should I do?

Part is from rear right brake caliper bracket, Acura Integra GS-R (1998) Coupe

yeah, a machine shop would be a great idea especially if it’s imported as OP stated. they should be able to re-tap the threads as long as he didn’t completely destroy the caliper.
