    Your best bet is to look out for a cosmetically challenged 8000 on ebay. They do come up for sale quite often and usually don't make very much money.

    I take it that a careful cleaning with 99% alcohol and a swab won't fix it?  Was it physically damaged?

    It is a Philips CDM2 mechanism - unfortunately one of the most sought after ones!

    The following machines use something similar and can be cannibalised:

    MARANTZ CD273 - CDM2
    CAMBRIDGE AUDIO CD2 - CDM2 / 4xTDA1541
    MARANTZ CD45 - CDM2/29 / TDA1540
    PHILIPS CD-150/1 - CDM2/29
    PHILIPS CD-350 - CDM2/29 / TDA1541
    MISSION PCM4000 - CDM2-10 / TDA1541
    MARANTZ CD75NB - CDM2-160
    PHILIPS CD-360 - CDM2 //CDM4/25
    PHILIPS CD-460 - CDM2
    PHILIPS CD-560 - CDM2 //CDM4/25
    PHILIPS CD-650 - CDM2/29//CDM4/25 / TDA1541
    PHILIPS CD-771 - CDM2-0500//CDM4/11

    Look at this article about repairing components -  http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=7849

    You will probably need an expert to sort this out for you. Where are you based?
