does it have a name on it? maybe comet?
if you measure the diameter and do some on-line searching, there should be some info on them. try this site.

i just happen to look at my kids' yerf dog 6.5hp and noticed that it will need a driver and driven unit also.....i did some web surfing and these things aren't as easy to find as they used to be. it an asymetrical series 30 on it and there are only a couple places i found that show them and them suckers ain't cheap any more!!! if someone finds a good supplier let me know too......

They are 30 series. Ya, with comet going out of business parts are scarce. My understanding is that someone bought all their old stock though and plan on keeping the business going.

i would assume that someone will pick up where they left off. there are still a ton of karts out there using this set-up. the trick will be finding the deals.
