NOS, would have them.  I see it listed in my manual as a part # 417-30 (old numbering system) and this translates to new number 24721-30 which is correct in different diagrams I've seen including Jireh's.  What's odd is that NOS part description reads about it being an old wheel bearing retainer unless by that they mean flywheel assembly.

Part is in Jireh's as 95-308.

Well, it was also used on the small side of star hubs.

Whatever you do, stick to OEM. The aftermarket cages cause problems. They're not machined perfect & the rollers can
drag or skid on the shaft.
