boogered chain box shafts

My timing chain tensioner pivot shafts are galled pretty bad in the area that the idler arms ride on. My 3.0 sc had pressure fed tensioners installed but they used a spacer instead of updated, longer idler arms.

The galling was so bad that I could barely removed one of the idler arms. I would like to heat the housings, remove the shafts and replace w/ new shafts.

Does anyone know if these shafts are available as replacement parts?

I will be replacing the idler arms for sure.
