Does is look like 3 circles when you look end on? A bit like the Olympic logo with the two end circles knocked off?
Edit - I have just googled and it is called a clover-leaf socket. I have a few spare if you want to call me?

Thanks John, I'll give you a ring later today.

Apple aren't the only company who use that cable, I found out recently to my surprise. I had always presumed it was a proprietary lead. I once had to pinch one from a Toshiba projector to power a Mac Mini.
They're available from lots of places, like here:

Thanks Scotgio, I have been waiting for an email from that site for some time on when they will be getting them back in stock but to no avail.
Sorry I hijacked your thread Cheesemonster.
Hope you get your's sorted out too.
Al.
