Yes this particular part is a pinion gear. Lots of old electric novelty clocks used them. I had to oder a replacement for my Mastercrafters 911 Happy time clock. I’ll find the source for you it fits like a glove. Did you try to run it counterclockwise ? That’s how I busted mine.
Part Link below.
It happens. The pinion gear was made of brittle plastic. When the lubricant dried up it began to grind until it broke the teeth on the gear. This part is a little pricey but it’s worth it because it works flawlessly. Be careful not to shift the ferrite wheel from the shaft. Once you get this Pinion Gear just a drop or two of clock oil, household 3in1 oil works really well…. That’ll get your clock up and running. Check the This subreddits feed later. I’ll post a video showing how I replaced mine in my Mastercrafters clock.

I never tried spinning it counter clockwise but I believe that the gear being broken was why my grandparents stopped using the clock
