They do not make Main leafs , I asked about them making a custom pack out of XJ leafs and they told me they make them all but the mains , they out source them.

Call the kit manufacturer, they may be able to get you just that leaf. Sounds like a PITA, I'm sure you wouldn't HAVE to have both sides right now, but it may look a little lopsided & I'd be questioning the life-expectancy of the other main leaf after breaking one.
