97-01 Camry Wiring Harness Clamps, How do I Find Part Numbers

Hey everyone! Maybe someone can help me with this, I am having the WORST time finding part numbers for the original plastic clips, ties, and clamps for the wiring harness around the engine bay! So many of them have broken off over time, been lost by dealerships, or are breaking with age, and I cannot find their part numbers anywhere. Some clip to the timing belt cover, some to the back of long screws, some to hoses, and I can't find them anywhere. All I can find are cheap replacements that don't match in size on amazon.

I tried sourcing the wiring diagrams online, and they do have some clamps with part numbers, but none of them match the ones that are broken or missing. See attached for the diagram and an example one I'm looking for that clips to the timing belt cover. There are also three of them above the radiator that support the wiring harness across the grille, those are about to snap and cannot find any clips that look even remotely similar. Can anyone help with this, and thank you!

As Strega pointed out an ordinary zip tie can sometimes be used.
But sometimes it won't hold the wires quite as nicely as the original clamp had done.
The good thing is those custom clamps were used for mass production and are not strictly necessary now, to be exactly what had been there.

I did a lot of research into this a few years ago and came up with a few universal clamps which can be used in place of nearly all of those custom clamps:

82711-12A70, a large capacity zip tie type clamp which clips to the Toyota standard 7x12mm slot. This is my main "go to".
82711-10330 is almost the same, but for clipping into a dia7mm round hole (common on pre Gen3, and used in a couple of places on the Gen3, pretty much from Gen4 on all clamps used a 7x12mm slot instead.

Here are a lot more part numbers for some other options.
- the zip tie clamps "0.65~2.6t" means thickness of the panel it will be clipped to
- the "dia15COT" means it is designed to hold a corrugated outer tube of that diameter, those COT clamps go onto a steel "tongue" 16.5mm wide 1.2t.
