MAGS
Kyle,
How much time is on the magneto in question?
Rather than have and A&P mess around with them, your best bet is to remove them and send them out to a certified TCM magneto speciality shop. AND,...

Ouch!
Ben,
Curious is this break occurred because of a metallurgical defect, such as perosity of the metal, or perhaps too much stress on the part from improper rigging?

Kevin,
Cessna can probably provide one, but I'm guessing the lead time would be several weeks. Last time I checked prices on these, a couple years back, they were over $1100 bucks. You might give...

Ah-HUM! It may very well be that you're not burning any oil at all!
Suggest a reading of the POH, Section 8 on "Handling, Service & Maintenance," which discusses the oil issue in detail.
