Well, the relevant IBM part numbers ought to be 88P5838 for the original build and FRU# 88P8463 for the Field Replaceable Unit (Swap-out item).
Searching for those at www.lenovo.com (who took over IBM's PC manufacture) gives no results.

Looking at the System board diagram - NetVista 6058, 6059, 6568, 6569, 6578, 6579, 6599, 6647, 6648, 6649, 6650 shows a very similar board.
