Ebay, Amazon, Mouser, Adafruit, AliExpress, Digikey...
You're probably going to need a hot air station to do it.

If that's too difficult, if you can get the port off, you can make a USB 2.0 dongle and solder that to it. Not going to look as clean but it will get the job done.

maybe try asking kdbfans directly if they could either give you the reference of maybe even send you a replacement port, does not cost much to try, and if they can help you you would be sure to have the right port for the job, if they can't then i can't either :) good luck

Wow this actually happened to me about a month ago on my dz60! I took it to a local electronics repair shop that did an amazing job, it looked better than what came from the factory but when I plugged it in only the LEDs worked, the inputs were intermittent and unreliable. I unfortunately ended up just desoldering all of my switches and buying a new dz60 for like $70 shipped.
