I am looking for a replacement casing for a bonfiglioli 12v windlass motor part no 12300586. my motor is A1 but the casing has corroded excessively. can anybody assist? the motor is attached to a lewmar windlass
 
The motor of my Lewmar windlass was also heavily corroded. Gentle chipping with a hammer removed large flakes but left metal all the way round. I wrapped the wire-brushed remains with glass cloth and epoxy and put it back. It has worked all season and doesn't feel or smell too hot.
 
thanks for the help, I have now reached a stage where it appears that the sensible solution is a new motor and will try the supplier suggested
