You might want to consider having me rebuild it.

The original tube was Excelon 2000 which I believe is a clear PVC (or at least that is what Excelon 2000 is now). In any case, the size used by Star is not a standard size offered today, so I'm sure you would have to order a very large quantity.
I use clear polycarbonate, but tube I use is much thicker than the original and the ID has to be machined to fit your parts. It seems to hold up very well without discoloring. I have not had good luck with thinner polycarbonate
