    needle jet

    I would buy a rebuild kit from ebay if you can find one. Also try www.partsfish.com. They have lots of great replacement parts. I got a headbolt for my 350x from there. Bikebandit.com should have one also.

    Be CAREFUL there are no burrs in where the needle broke off. Since it was stuck, there may be rough spots in the emulsifier tube (hole the needle drops into). That will cause it to run way rich when you put it back together because the needle will hang up.
