Where can I find these parts?
I kind of broke the 5th and 6th port actuator arms on my 90 gxl while trying to free them. There doesn't seem to be a store that sells them, and i'm downright scared of asking mazda what they want for a pair of the things.
Also, while taking the lower intake manifold off, I found I need to replace the oil metering lines. The OEM style seems somewhat of a bad idea to me, so I looked around and found stainless steel ones for sale, but they only had them for fds. Would those work on the fc?
Any help finding these or other suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I assume you are talking about the rod with the forked and and flexible joint. I bought one of mine from rx7world.com but I did it in person. I believe it was like $70. The front and rears are different so keep that in mind too. You can also call mazdatrix and they can give you a price too.

But check the for-sale section on this forum and post a WTB ad. (want to buy)
You might have to get an entire LIM though.

If you do end up ordering from Mazda, the part numbers are N350-13-880A, and N351-13-880A, might want to call the dealership first to see if they can even get them and what the prices are. It might be easiest to get another LIM however as Micah pointed out.
Having gone through the same thing myself, when you get the new rods, if you do, clean the hell out of the holes with some Autozone brand carb cleaner. It dries completely so you can lube afterward and not have a bunch of solvent leftover.
If you end up with a new LIM, the screws holding the cover over the rods will most likely be seized, and you'll need to tap them with an indented (not pointed) punch to spin them out. Afterward, hit them with carb cleaner and twist gently to get them moving, then clean everything up and re-lube.
I did manage to get them moving again, and they'll turn, but they still require a bit more force than I feel they need to.
When/if you get the old LIM off, pull the sleeves too and clean/lube them.
And have fun with it.
