That's a Hales No.11 rod grenade. I was lucky enough to find one in the U.K. many years ago along with a Newton "pippin" No. 22 rod grenade. Lots of luck finding one, and these days it's gonna COST him. I should think the U.K. is the only possibility. If you can find a copy of the "armourer magazine" it should give a list of militaria shops.

Thats a rod grenade, what you see in the pic is all that is needed.
The only one that used a discharger cup was the Mills bomb.
However early in the war, the Mills was also a rod grenade and the sheet metal launcher for it is as easy to find as rocking horse ####e.
{Took me years to find one)
oddly enough from Canada, and I was damm glad to get it.
