You could do with knowing what other vans this bit of kit was fitted to (is it a generic fitting?) then contact a few breakers. One of them is bound to have something to suit. Just make sure the new bit isnt on its way out with age, as well.

Is it possible to get a flat piece of plastic, flexible enough to slide down the back of the shower valve, and seal it with silicon.
Ideally is to take the cubical out, fit a back plate, also a plate where the valve is in the cubical, which gives it more strength.
We have a shower in our van, but never use it, well only occasionally , we use area for storage?

I've just used Plast Aid to repair bathroom sink - it had cracks round the plug hole then sprayed with white Rustoleum plastic paint it seems a strong repair. The crumbly area would need to be cut back to solid the repair done sanded down with very fine grade then sprayed. (If you use plast aid it cures to transparent so for aesthetics you'd probably want to paint to match with plastic paint)
