Looks like a bit of plastic to me. Is it special?
Sorry,I was just trying to see if I could post a pic.This little piece of plastic is causing me sleepless night's and i'm out of options,i'm hoping that the PH massive might have a clue what it is and where I can get one.
It's out of a fork stachion from a Beta Rev 3 250cc 2007 and I need a replacement,however local dealer cannot help and the piece does not show up on any of the exploded drawings of the fork.

Oh ffs, that was the right way round on my computer.
Take the picture again holding your phone so it's upright. you can also download the already posted picture, rotate it on your pc and the upload it again. Easier to take the picture holding your phone the right way up though. Jasey_ said:
Maybe try to find someone with a 3d printer and print one.
If the dealer can't help this may be your only chance

I could get the part made no problem,unfortunately I put it away somewhere safe while I was stripping the rest of the bike,I don’t think I need to add any more. If the dealer can't help this may be your only chance
.
My only option now is to buy some old forks and try and get the bastid thing out in one piece.
A quick search found this :

part #18, plastic guide bushing, 37,50€ though.
From here : https://www.mxc.de/beta-rev3-250-06-gabel.html
Maybe contace these guys with pic, to make sure this would be the right part,
I would order two and overhaul the other leg as well.
Are there no UK shops for this ?

Pretty sure that is actually part of the damper assembly and not the stantion.
As mentioned before though, a decent 3d service will be able to photo-scan it and print it in a range of materials.
Thanks for that Rubin.As mentioned before though, a decent 3d service will be able to photo-scan it and print it in a range of materials.
Pretty sure with the shape of it it's something to do with the damper. I didn't mean I thought it was part of the stanchion I just meant it sits in the groove on top of it,I probably worded it badly as I was rushing.
I'm probably being very naive as I know nothing about 3d printing but you can't mean they can make one from the single crappy photo i've posted here?
I don't have or can find a proper picture of the part.

These guys should be able to help out.
At least you know what you are looking for now
If not, greenlandmx are decent and might be able to help too
eta: that probably isn't the exact one, not knowing the exact detail for your forks

Thanks for taking time to have a look.
Already been on to local dealer who has been on to Beta with no luck.The trouble is that the company that made the forks(Paioli) no longer exists so getting spares is getting very difficult.
I could take the gamble and order the bit you have noted (it is only in one stanchion) which is probably what I will end up doing in the end.
