The left stick behind the steering wheel is missing a piece as you can see here:
I was wondering if this is replaceable and if so what the part number would be.
Thanks in advance.

You can find the parts list for Volvo online here. The link of interest will be Home> Volvo> V70> 2001> Electrical system> Switches, turn indicators, main and dipped beams, WIPER/WASHER
And it looks like the smallest part they sell is the entire turn signal switch. It looks like they run between $67 and $148.. Hmm.. not cheap. The price depends on the options, and as I suspect your luck is just like mine, yours is closer to the $148 number.
Another alternative is to check the parts window at your local Volvo dealership, but I suspect they will have similar results and prices as shown above.
Do you still have the broken parts from the original one? This might be a fun and rewarding 3D plastic printed part exercise. You'd have to "design it" with a CAD system (I use SolidWorks) but there are other options available. You need a complete 3D digital model of the part. Then you could just print out a new one. I would recommend black ABS for the material. I'm pretty sure the broken part is ABS, so that's a match.
Oh, wow. I just checked. You can buy grey ABS as well. A roll is around $25 depending where you look.
