the heat shield which covers spark plug leads from heat of exhaust manifold in the engine is breaking up - I don't know the part number but can I source a new shield? if so, plus price please. thank you.

If your car is an M20 the heat shield I think you mean is part of the exhaust manifold gasket. to swap it properly you will need to take the manifold off

Depending on what engine and how old the car is depends on the heatshield, some early cars are old school metal
shiels but the M40 and M20 engines the shields were part of the manifold gaskets.
