Missing part--power port for dell vostro 2510

[jpremodeler]

I have a Vostro 2510 that is in good working order, except the part that accepts the power cord is broken. It appears the plastic piece that holds all the connections fell out and I no longer have it.

Does anyone know where I could order such a part? I looked on line, and all the parts stores I found did not have it.

Does anyone know if this is a simple fix? I have replaced the ram and hdd for an ssd, but nothing more than that.

Thanks in advance for any help!
