The drive gear on the motor is the one that folks usually replace (vs. the idler gear with the counter wheel).

These are available.  You just need to make sure that:
1) the inner diameter hole is the same
2) the overall length works / doesn't interfere
3) if the outer diameter isn't the same, you'll need to change the feed setting.

You could also try adjusting the spring tension.

Would you have a link to the brass drive gear?  They looked pressed onto the motor shaft.  Are they actually replaceable?

This is not immediate and can kill a print after some time has elapsed. The printer doesn't use the photo sensor to keep track of filament usage. That is calculated by the controller, using extrusion thickness and feed rates.

thanks
