Looks like just automotive body filler to me, I'm not sure how well it sticks to plastic.
If I ever did that, it would've probably fallen right off and ruined something else on the player that's unrepairable, but that's my luck.
It was probably just a quick fix to sell it to some unsuspecting buyer.

Yeah, Nylon isn't repairable so I do understand his approach. The only other option is replacement.
But scavenging one is a waiting game with no guarantees, and trying to reverse engineer your own takes skills very few collectors have.
With those fine teeth, it would have to be made by a shop with higher-end printers and materials too

I did it in such a way that I took a spare parts dispenser and cut a piece out of the gear there and put it in the gap it worked but not perfectly :(
