Finding the part will be next to impossible. You will void your warranty. How about just removing it and cleaning the dirt out. See step #6 of this guide: MacBook Pro 13" Touch Bar 2018 Teardown If this becomes an issue it will probably get covered like the keyboards have.

May I ask why you need to replace it?

after a few minutes of not using it, on the first click it almost feels as if theres dirt in-between the pad and the click mechanism but its very faint so I know apple will not fix it and if they do it will be sent out for a week to do it so I would rather just replace the trackpad myself knowing it shouldn't be like that because my work one runs fine all the time

Thank you Emily, I looked at the guide but I didn't see if the 2018 and 2017 use the same trackpad. thank you
