Jonathan, I agree with and echo your sentiment.
I wonder, is this:
* A: the end of the line for parts for our dear Eurovans, and we have to start making them ourselves or abandoning the vehicles if we can't?
* B: simply the normal events when a discontinued model hits 20 years of age, and we just need to wait a bit for 3rd party manufacturers to start making parts soon?
* C: either A or B, but possibly worsened by covid-supply-related issues?

It is concerning that we are running out of some crucial spare parts for Eurovans. I can think of two ways we can address this. One is to find functionally equivalent generic parts and adapt them to the Eurovan, the other is to 3D print and/or machine an exact replacement.
Both require some work, and I'm happy to participate as I have just semi-retired. If someone can get a broken or worn out evap carbon canister to me (95252), I can refund the postage and make it my first project.
