Again, have you just gone to the local good hardware store and looked
through their selection? There are those long rows of yellow
(typically) assortment boxes of all kinds of odds and ends there for
precisely this reason.

Here's a link that shows just a few random replacement switches...

Then again, keep looking at more recent P-C saws until find one that is
still available..

says it's a replacement for one of those numbers you gave earlier.

In the end, "a switch is just a switch"; there's nothing magic about the
part number specifically, you just need one that has minimum current
rating for the use and that will mechanically adapt to the location.

That's a pretty ordinary form factor it appears from the parts figure.

IOW, don't make it harder than it needs be...
