On iPhone 7 there is a small black pin that sits inside the housing that ejects the Sim tray and is often forgotten when swapping housings.

Would you know where I could buy replacements of this?

Well if you're lucky and still have your original housing you can remove it from there, although to put it back into the new housing you will have to remove the board.

But as far am I as aware you cannot buy this part.

Well,

the real problem is you have used an aftermarket (fake) back off ebay.

They do not come with that hole predrilled.

So it could not screw the sim ejector in.

It can be done it just needs to heat the screw so it will make the hole.
