DLC8 replacement motor

[Kahrs]

Yes, the tenants managed to put a hole in my DLC-8P motor base (how, I do not know).  Any suggestions for a compatible replacement?  Looking on epay, I see items like DLC-8 Plus along with other models like DLC-8F.  What are the differences in the various builds?

 

Thanks!

I have various Cuisinarts in my basement that I no longer use, so I went to see what the DLC8P looked like to know whether it looked like anything downstairs.  Have you tried the usual replacement parts sites? Do you just need the housing or is the motor itself damaged?

[Kahrs]

Just the housing.  They somehow put a hole in it, how I do not know.

Is it made in japan or china?

Japan.

I'll keep an eye out for one - I often see just the base at thrift stores - usually don't bother to buy them because when I give away a food processor I want it to have the blades and such.
