Presumably nothing to do with the lathe but it seems the broken part is from a Robert Sorby Patriot Chuck.
I can't make out if it's the chuck insert or the drive pinion that's snapped. Either way, if spares are available they are only likely to be obtained from Robert Sorby.

If the broken part is the insert you will need to know the thread size of your lathe to get a replacement.

Looks like it was a drive pinion.
FYI. Quote from the chuck refurbish article,
"Reassembly is the reverse process with certain caveats. Spray each part with lubricant prior to assembly. My preferred lubricant is PTFE spray, because it is a ‘dry’ lubricant, but any fine oil will do. Do NOT use grease of any grade."

The grease will clog with sawdust & you will be stripping it apart to clean it every month.
