Tell us the particular model if it's OEM we should be able to find it online.
The problem is: where would I still find a dedicated-ethanol (actually it was an early flexfuel) air-cooled Volkswagen with this system still working? Many owners used to remove that device. When the ProÁlcool started, dedicated-ethanol cars got some lower taxes, so it would still be deemed reasonable to get an ethanol-fed Beetle, Kombi, or Brasilia (yes, there was a car with the same name of Brazilian capital - and no, it's not Buenos Aires) and take that system off. After '96 when the Kombi started to use multi-point EFI, that device had been phased out.
