I think you will find them both at JSL spares try looking at the Club heading of this forum then spares listing. I cant do it while writing this so I will let you try to see what can be found.

I had a look myself but could not find anything so try Andrew Engineering (Leigh) Ltd on 01942 888848 they make many of the parts for JSL and that's where I got my extractors from.

015273 EXTRACTOR; TIMING & MAG GEAR Price : £8.98 each

Duncan obviously my search was not correct so let me into the secret, or at least give us a clue then we will all know.

Eric, I just used the quick search to look for "Extractor", it will find the part number as well, I tend not to use the groupings and drill down that way as they are not always intuitive and you can miss the item if you are in the wrong area.

If I am ordering parts I usually refer to the paper JSL catalogue list first as there are a number of useful items in the 900000 series that you can also miss by searching for the original part number on the screen that your eye can pick out easier.

Duncan strange thing is thats exactly what I did but with no result. However just tried it again and it worked, so I either spelt extractor wrong first time round or there was some other technical malfunction.
