I'm having trouble finding a rim sprocket for a Stihl MS 170 3/8" Pitch 7T saw. There are a lot of AM parts but I'm looking for an Oregon brand. Any help on the Oregon part number?

Ore rims won’t fit. You have to get a stihl replacement…no aftermarket for the smaller stihl saws. Sucks…
I see Amazon sells a 0.325 P 7T rim sprocket. At least that's what Amazon say it fits. And I've bought AM spur sprockets before.
It won’t fit. Stills are 9mm. Aftermarket are all 10mm.
been there, done this…
You did not state if you have a Stihl rim drive drum (mini spline) or an aftermarket like Oregon one (small spline) Oregon may not sell all the stuff they have a few years ago, Like the drums with splines. Going all Stihl will assure a proper diameter sprocket for the Stihl 3/8 picco chains. I would expect you would use the 0.043 gauge 61pmm3 chain for a 7 tooth drive on that saw.
I believe Amazon is not really the seller just as ebay is not the seller. Even walmart.com has a way for third parties to list on their site. At least for these type of things.

Currently I have a AM Spur sprocket on it. Fits well. Just haven't seen anyone selling Stihl. And yes I use a similar chain. Right now the Oregon equivalent in 0.050 gauge.
I put these words in an ebay search "stihl ms250 picco rim kit" no exact matches but found this https://www.ebay.com/itm/234044623405?hash=item367e258a2d:g:LuAAAOSw1Itgv2rt&amdata=enc:AQAHAAAA0DVVwPmrJACn6pj10Q2Yq7y5Te00iVtPKU9T2k7nQ+iI7v18qoDDilLJL1GoG2zuoMphqEZHzmBnytvxHoCTD6SmtibLuYenMsBMp4yWMB9adLgBtdggXxV5R3myqL3TweFGB2bSZE6EDEb1x5epFz4uBQVuqeOjb/jFFCHF1TTe08f0fc3pFohV5pIUbu1zSU3zTeM0k95/HXjh1Tb26tK8NHPLm9nkGYAUFKaiUn4ELAvFq/2spGFbA6D6jxd0N/39sFxfvADabO4CrsHM6aw=|tkp:Bk9SR9yb7-bhYQ Might be less $ at a stihl dealer, saying you have an ms241 might help if they need to start with a saw model.
I have the bag mine came in at another address and the actual part number in a little file on another computer than is on and connected to the internet.

put 1123-007-1030 in your own search on this site or elsewhere.
The holes in rim sprockets seem wide enough for 1.6mm drive links even though things like picco 3/8 and 1/4 chain are 0.050 (1.3mm) or even less.
