Derwent Macdee Metro 3 Part Syphon replacement diaphgram

Anyone know the size I need to get to replace the plastic diaphgram for my loo please? Somehow my toddler fiddled with the toilet handle when he was actually on the toilet and the chain fell into the syphon. Thankfully I could remove that bit from the downleg (had nightmares of having to remove water and take off cistern to replace everything) and reattach. Noticed the plastic is torn but didn't think to measure it and cba to take everything apart again. Is it this one (although mine is blue)?

Can't seen anything in Screwfix for it.

Ta,

Just get one that shape for a Derwent Macdee. They are all the same size.

They are different for different manufacturers, and there are different shapes (D-shaped and round) but, as long as it is a Derwent rectangular(ish) one, it will fit.

One point about the Derwent diaphragms, some have two tiny holes and some don't. That is the only difference and they are interchangeable. If your syphon has two little pips for the holes and your new diaphragm doesn't have them, you will need to "form" the holes by pushing the diaphragm down over the pips.
