FS7: FS7 LCD Part

Does anyone know what part(s) I would need to fix or replace the piece on the FS7 LCD screen shown in the pics below. Mine is now loose and appears ready to break at any minute thank to my camera tipping over on a shoot this weekend. It's the part that allows the screen to rotate. Do I need to just replace the whole screen? I'm trying to find a part number of what I need so that I can quickly get this fixed and back up and running. Thanks!

Argh... someone posted a similar post not too long ago in which someone else posted a link to the speccs and part numbers of the lcd and lcd arm build. Must be on one of the first pages.
 
It doesn't seem like Sony makes it easy to find part numbers. Is that because they want to do the repairs?
 
I would suggest that you have broken either the M2 screws that hold the hinge assy in place or the hinge assy itself, item #654. Below are the pages from the service manual/parts listing

If it is just one or more of the M2 screws severed then a reasonable hand with some tools could fix it pretty cheaply. Obviously needs to be disassembled to find out what is amiss.

Good luck!
