I just replace the whole thing while replacing the wax. But maybe people know how to find the model number and order it online. that should cover the ****.

Visit the KOHLER website and order/get another one. Tell them the
model...

Digger Nick:

The tank cover is a separate item. Shouldn't have to replace a whole toilet over a top.

If you can order a new tank cover, that'd be the way to go.

If you can't, I'd use a construction adhesive like LePage's PL Premium to glue the cover back together.

Cyanoacryllate, and epoxy come to mind.

Temporarily crazy glue should hold. Once it is back together, make a sketch showing all dimensions, and go to a junk yard and look for a used cover.

Make your own out of a 1x8 or plywood.

Clean and dry the edge carefully, then use a slow cure epoxy to glue it
together. Scrape excess epoxy off with a razor blade after it begins to harden,
and you'll hardly see it. Then be careful with it, as it probably will break
again if you aren't.

Fortified with duct tape...to cover the crack on top, so sharp edges
cause no harm by accident.

If you are devious, tell them it came out of the box that way and you'd
like a replacement. If you are somewhat honest, eat it, and go buy
another. (no one is totally honest, no jab at you intended.)

Does it show signs of recovery after therapy sessions? How many

1. Glue together...white glue, yellow glue, CA, epoxy, JB Weld...any will
do.

2. Replace with plywood

3. Leave bare NOTE: you will no longer be able to set things there

4. Buy a new one

Most cities have at least one depot that resells useable
fixtures salvaged from demolished houses. You can
take the broken cover with you when searching for a
replacement.

But, where is the model number of the toilet tank itself?

I forget. But I found mine somewhere. Back of the tank or inside, Look
around more closely. Is it under/bottom of the tank lid cover?

so, I should be able to find one, if I can find
the model number of the tank.

Locate a plumbing supply place near you, in the industrial section of
town. Take the broken piece with you. Likely you will find it or it
can be ordered from a good supply house.

Don't break it on the way home - just sayin'

Sorry for not updating this sooner, but, the part number for the
almond Kohler one-piece toilet bowl was stamped on a similar bowl:
https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7435/...729f7de63b.jpg

Putting the information from two toilet bowls together, it's
most likely some part of the combined number below:
T75 UPC K3384CA 20142 72800 (#70 ALM 08 15)
Where I think the 72800 is a date code (i.e., 7/28/00)
https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5480/...b3b4259ce7.jpg

The almond Kohler cover itself was stamped with the imprint:
T38 UPC 84250 20304 81100
Where I think the 81100 is a date code (i.e., 8/11/00)
https://farm3.staticflickr.com/2911/...064ee99555.jpg

Here is a top pictu
https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7367/...130ceb3224.jpg
And a bottom shot:
https://farm3.staticflickr.com/2911/...064ee99555.jpg

And a fitment test:
https://farm3.staticflickr.com/2925/...df60300901.jpg

Now all I have to do is find the thing, now that I know the
probable part numbers.

If the one from another toilet fits, you may just need to pick the
color. AlmondWhite

If you can't replace it, I'd carefully use epoxy as others suggest.
My wife's always putting doilies. sea shells, etc on top of ours and no
one would notice an imperfect job.

Actually, they're both Almond.
Both are in the same house.
I hadn't realized that there were two of the same toilets.

Now that I know the part number, googling, for
kohler T 38 UPC 84250 20304
I find this:

This one is the wrong color, but I should part out my house

I buy a lot of replacement/spare parts for machines. That is really not
a bad price. It has to be sorted, stored, photographed, advertised,
packaged, and risk never being sold after all of that.

Consider all the options though.
1. buy the lid for $75
2. repair what you have.
3. buy and install a new comfort height toilet and enjoy the benefits.

Yes, that's the way I think I'd go. Make the mold out of plaster. You should be able to duplicate the shape exactly.
