Might be this one
Mercury Marine Remote Controls and Components REMOTE CONTROL ASSEMBLY (STANDARD) Parts

If you can find a part number ( any piece not necessarily the whole unit) you can plug it in at a couple of websites and get a list of remotes containing that piece part. try marineengine dot com or boats dot net

Two hints:

Check the gear shifter cam (part #36) VERY carefully for wear, the two little "nubs" at the top of the heart-shaped (tomato-shaped?) cutout like to wear away / break off, and then it won't shift.

"Glue" the detent roller and spring (parts #2 and 3 in diagram) into place with vaseline before reassembly. (Betcha those are the parts that fell out!)
