[SOLVED] Plastic cable guide for this 06 Rockhopper?

Hi there everyone!

I picked up an 06 Rockhopper frame to build and have almost immediately hit a speed bump. Looking at the frame, the only routing for both the front and rear derailleur are below the bottom tube, through a plastic guide, which should be one piece with two channels, one for each derailleur. I can't be more specific because the piece currently installed is broken. I'm searching for a replacement, but I think I'm failing to find a replacement because my search phrases are too vague. I'm not sure what to call it. I'm finding cable guides for other brands, but nothing for Specialized, much less the Rockhopper.

Could someone help me figure out where I might find one of these?

Thanks in advance for your time!

Thanks very much for your reply. The nearest bike shop is almost an hour away for me. The nearest Specialized shop is two hours. An online solution would be preferable.

I'm going to go ahead and consider this resolved. Although it's not considered a match for the Spec RH frame, I found this guide on eBay and I'm confident I can modify it to work. I'm very sorry for the false alarm!
