Any straight alternator adjuster bracket will fit. Ive recently took one off a M10 318 and placed it on a 325 touring. They look pretty much identical, although they were fitted with the adjusting nut on the other end from each other.

Have you tried your local BMW dealer?

You may well be suprised,if the part is in the UK,next day,if it has to come from 'de fatherland',perhaps three days.
Price will probably compare well with buying s/h as well.
