Lawn Boy 7000

In the process of restoring a Lawn Boy 7000, which I believe is a 1956. Finding that some effort is required to locate parts for the mower. I recently ordered a gasket set and a carb kit on ebay. The case for the coil is broken, so I will need to order a new one. Am I better off purchasing an aftermarket or NOS coil? In addition the float in the carb is pretty gummed up with remnants of gas and oil. It appears to be cork, so I am not sure how cleaning it will work. Has anyone had any luck finding floats anywhere? Lastly, I was wondering if anyone has close paint matches for these mowers (red and green)?

Thanks
Sean
