The big question would be WHY? lol, someone got tired of it and yanked it out.
Maybe Try LMC and/or junkyard. Or someone here may have one that gutted their dash and stuff

You could probably find a dozen or so in the edge of my yard. For years I was the go-to guy when a fellow bought a new truck.
They would drive it to me to get it removed.
At first, I would track it down and pull it out and throw it away. Then, they started integrating it with other stuff, and I would have to remove it, modify it, and put it back in.

I took one out, hooked up a couple of leads, made an electrical leak detector with it. Had it for 30 + years now, came out of Dad's 75 Impala he bought new.

I doubt it, most ppl yank those out or just leave me. not many replace them. Try also ROCKAUTO.com.
Did some research and found a part #:
GM 14036201
These are discontinued and all the units I found were between $40-70.
You guys should have kept all those buzzers you pulled for friends!
I was able to track one down for $25 though.

I recall a comedian having an entire skit based on those "annoying little car buzzers"..
He said "Ever notice NO ONE ever replaces these things??--no one ever comes into a parts store and says "I'd like one of these annoying buzzers please"!..--
And ,if you go to a junkyard and see an old car thats sat there 20 years and you decide to buy & restore it--the first thing you hearwhen you stick a battery in it is that dam annoying BUZZER!....I hunt them down and beat them to death in every new vehicle I get!"...
I remember my dad hated those buzzers--one day he got a new company car,a 1976 Ford Torino wagon--its buzzer drove him nurs,so I found it and unplugged it...next day he discovered the horn no longer worked!;;I put it back in,and the horn worked again--evidently its wired into the horn curcuit somehow!..so I left it plugged in,with the door open,it screaming its annoying little tune--and I poked it with a small screwdriver and let the smoke out,then it was blissfull silence--and the horn still worked!...
I think the junkyard is the best place to shop for one if you must have one....when I worked at one some days we'd plug them into the wall socket and watch them go
"AHHHHHHHH--POP "!..car horns sound awsome on 110V AC too,--for about 3 seconds anyway!...we had a lot of fun during lunch hour setting off old air bags and blowing things uo!...
