I've got one of those too. A bright green dutch oven. Funny thing is
that we use the lid more than the pot, because it fits "just right"
on my wifes favorite saute pan.

I can't imagine it would be easy to find at this late date.

Maybe put a 'heli-coil' insert in your old handle? Such inserts are used
in cars all the time. Do you have a friend who is a mechanic? Or is there
a machine shop nearby?
