Not sure if they are a stand size i.e. available from Porsche parts suppliers, but McMaster is a good place for generic hardware items like pins

You’ll have to make your own pin.

Hi
You may be able to use the rollers from a roller bearing.
These come in various diameters and lengths.
You can buy them individually, (or in small quantities) from your local bearing supplier.
Cheers

I believe they’re flat spotted on the inside of the pin.
Regardless, I’m sure it’s all metric.

Get a micrometer measure pin, buy a steel rod off McMaster, grind a flat spot, pound in, done.

Thanks Guys... I removed a pin again and noticed the "flat" goes quite far down on the pin. Actually enough that you can cut-off the part that "sticks out" and have enough flat to reinstall.

In any case, measured and they're 6.00mm X 40mm. So have a few 6mm gauge pins coming.

Make sure tool is flush with sprocket and pins are all the way in before torquing on it.

When I am looking for bits like that I find drill shanks useful. Come in a range of sizes - metric and imperial. :-)

You might have to make your own opinion

Just tried my mine again after I pulled out a pin and chopped it off. Works great again.
