I'm trying to fix this AZTech Sound Galaxy BX II sound card, but I'm having trouble finding a new replacement for the damaged potentiometer that controls the volume. I can't find one that is even remotely similar to the original. Does anyone know the manufacturer or have any information that could help me find a replacement?

It's 10k ohm, through-hole with 6 pins.

See the attached pics.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Put the potentiometer in vinegar for half an hour and use a brush to clean all the rust. Let it dry, then use a lubricant contact cleaner to clean the carbon resistive surface.
