Marina 1.8 or MGB throttle cable. I think they will be the same length. If just the inner cable has broken, you can measure and very likely use a cycle rear derailleur or rear brake cable and cut off the excess .

Lubricate with engine oil or spray grease on installation. Never fit the cable dry as most people incorrectly do
