Sorry, not a replaceable part. Review this IFIXIT teardown: Magic Mouse Teardown.
If you can find a junker to swap out the part thats the only way.

The black plastic rails are not needed. Mine kept falling off my Apple Magic Mouse, so I eventually just left the rails off. Surprisingly, the aluminum bottom of them mouse slides fine over a cloth mouse pad and works fine. The rail-free mouse also works okay on my table; however, it makes a light scratching sound when I use it on a hard surface without the mouse pad.

If you have a 3d printer there are replacement plastic sliders on thingiverse. Just print them off on a reasonably good printer. (i used flashforge adventurer 3 with pla). https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:497409... . I used a box knife to remove the rails, if you're having trouble try removing the battery door and slide your knife in from that side.
