The old amstrad PCW8512/256 computers are a good source for these drives as they have two of them and the computers themselves are pretty much worthless. I do have a drive left over from a PCW some where but I don't think it worked when I tried it in a +3 spectrum.

Like this perhaps:
https://stiggyblog.wordpress.com/2011/04/17/zx-spectrum-3-floppy-drive-belt-change/
Might be an unexpected source if you can find old Sinclair ZX Spectrums...
eBay #302415223831 - the UK seller has ZX in his handle, perhaps he has
drives for you!
