Hi Fiona,
Have you tried Elna in RSA - always worth asking the central head office for a brand first, they may be able to supply the part or direct you to a local Elna dealer who can supply and fit it.

If that isn't an option then you could try this website to source the part
www.whitesewingcenter.com? He is the old Swiss Elna specialist in USA and has a wide range of spares in stock. However, you'll need technical knowledge to fit it.
The other option is to join the Yahoo group called "Elna Heirlooms" and then ask the members there for assistance. They are usually pretty helpful to genuine Elna owners of these old Swiss machines.
However, I'd try to find an Elna dealer firstly, I recently purchased the screws for the bobbin case for the same model as you from a service person in NZ, he knew exactly what I wanted and was able to supply them. I found him on Trademe, their Ebay equivalent. The old Sewing Machine Guys are priceless.
