Default Electric Seat help

So i've got GSAU's old Ghiasaurus, which has a broken drivers seat
it will only go forward/backwards on the right side rail, which means it pretty much doesn't go anywhere. The issues is that there is a little drive rod that goes from the electric motor to the part that moves the seat rail, and it has completely broken off. It looks like this:



What should I do? Is this a problem that can be repaired? Or do I need to replace the whole seat base? If so, can I just get a regular manual seat base instead?

You can replace it with a regular manual seat base, but from memory the motor only drives one side and the other just follows? Is there anything jamming the left hand side from moving?
