I do see that they have the part I would need at Ace.
If the nozzle is broken off, you may also need to replace the riser that screws into the underground threaded connection, because a new nozzle may not screw into the riser, if the threads are damaged. Check the riser for damage to the threads. ACE can sell you a riser and a nozzle. Also, buy a few extra nozzles for spares.
