first guess would be honda, I don't think a part costing a few dollars will be too elusive, secondly a JB weld repair of this part is not going to be recommended by anyone, they don't just 'break off'

Honda, they're only a couple of bucks.

Also, for what it's worth I had the same thing happen to my D15B Vtec a few years ago and I just shimmed up the keyway and put it together with a stong impact and thread locker. No issues. It's worth a shot since worst case all you're out is another crank pulley and key.
