I don't know...I think you could find similar cable and use it. I read someone using bicycle brake cable to fix the window.
Be creative as long as it works...

I know your problem having been faced with it. A fix is possible with much frustration and effort but if you can obtain the whole assembly from used parts outfit go for it. The damaged cable will respond to careful work with a hammer against a flat surface. Working out how it goes back in place is a headache but can be done.
