The aluminum bushing is part 303939. Normally it is retained in place in the carb body and prevented from turning by the 303982 nut. If you unscrew the aluminum bushing off the needle, your needle will look like the one in the parts list. Here is a factory parts list in case you do not have one.
Interestingly the one in my photo does not look much like the parts list, bet they interchange. I would put your needle in a lathe and try to recut the damaged tip. It’s worth a shot.
