I assume you are referring to the metal piece aka Dog Bone. Try Rodney Dickman or The Fiero Store to find what you need. The bushing is not all that hard to replace..

The only thing I'll say, is that if you decide to replace the dog bone with one that uses polyurethane, it will definitely have a much tighter feel to it, and you will feel quite a bit more vibration in the engine compartment. That said, the polyurethane really helps prevent that engine "rocking" feel. Even with new rubber bushings, it still will rock band and forth under heavy throttle and shifts. You really don't want that. I went with the poly bushings myself. I remember it being annoying enough that I tried to do something about it, and I installed rubber isolating washers in the seat tracks where it mounts to the floor frame, above and below the track. It actually worked!
