That's pretty cool, whoever you bought it from must have been a real rocket scientist. Any machine shop should be able to make one for you, just make sure that they add the back angle on the opposite edges so it seals properly. It's not a hard part to make, but attention to detail is absolutely crucial if it is going to seat properly.

I'd get in touch with Erick's first and see if you can buy another throttle plate, that would be the cheap and wise thing to do.

florida. i just sent my TB and upper plenum to him. shipping down there only took 2 days. and since he's just replacing a throttle plate it should take him only a day or so to slap a new one in there.
