Renault 1.9dci engine? If so then yes, widely available. If you are doing them yourself be VERY careful as they snap VERY easily

 

Sorry, after re-reading your post, do you mean the 5(?) coloured ones (2.5dci?) to the back right of the engine. again, yes they are available, although the main dealers only tend to want to sell you the complete unit! Try ebay?
