Default 96 transmission grenaded

Hello all my son has a 96 Accord 4cyl, with a 5 spd manual tranny, it was making grinding noises so we pulled the transmission and found throw out bearing in two pieces, replaced the rear seal, clutch and throw out bearing, back together still doing the same thing, take out tranny again, pull case apart, you can see what happen in the picture, my question to all the gurus, where do I find parts for this, not having much luck finding a junkyard tranny,
Sorry folks I see I don't have pro ledges to post pictures yet, I will post pictures as soon as I am able

Find another trans. That thing got hot.

Looks like it was run with very low, no fluid for a long time, finally got hot enough to start welding 4th and 5th gear to the mainshaft at which point it shredded the gear teeth. If you take a file to the rest of the gears they're probably soft as butter (the file should skate on the gears) Usually you'll get some warning before this happens, normally it will start popping out of 5th before this happens.

This really past the point of what would be considered a cost effective rebuild. But if you really want parts Synchrotech or Geerspeed should have what you're looking for.
