Failure typically happens because of less than stellar material & stress. Sure you can replace just the one broken leaf. I'd be willing to bet all the remaining leafs on that side are suspect & would be nervous about the other side as well unless I had a solid, definitive cause for the initial failure.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....
Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
