Go to a hardware store with this photo on your phone and ask for the parts.
I have the same situation, but I keep forgetting to shop. The home improvement stores have the kits that include the white plastic plunger and the cap. The bottom of the plunger has a little hook that attaches in to the pipe from the drain down to the mechanical plunger on top of the sink. The kit comes with directions, but I advise watching a couple of videos first. And if you don’t already have a safety shutoff under every sink, install it at the same time as the other kit.
My husband has his own sink. His solution was to not install the plunger kit at all because he said they always end up getting unhooked anyway. He uses a rubber stopper when he can find it. But I want my sink fixed correctly! Best wishes to you! ☺️
The sink stopper is attached to a rod in the drain under the sink. The lever raises and lowers it. Removing the rod underneath the stopper just lifts out. Here are general instructions.
