You won't find the part on any supplier, such parts are usually sold in bulk between Chinese companies. We tried to find similar parts in the community chat for the slot and for other components such as the headphone jack but that's very hard.
I think the process of Pine having a limited additional amount of those parts and sending it free of charge (shipping has to be paid) when opening a ticket is fair. However if you find a confirmed compatible alternative part please feel free to list it on the wiki as suitable alternative.
This is precisely why I've been asking for a datasheet, or at least a footprint and pin designation. There are many outwardly similar parts available, such as the ones whose datasheets I linked, but with variations in the detail of the footprint and in which pins connect to which contacts. Someone could reverse engineer this of course, but it really shouldn't be necessary.
That's a fair point, I would recommend bringing it up with TL after the launch of the EU store, I'm sure TL can and will release such files on requests.
