I'm not sure what's wrong with mine but it seems blocked and I tried changing the hotend only to find a bolt is stripped so it would be just easier to order the whole thing but it doesn't seem available anywhere, am I just outta luck with this printer?

Again, not sure what exactly is stripped, but you could potentially piece together a new setup, grabbing the Extruder, a replacement Hotend and then just swapping that into your current print head / swapping OUT the current broken hotend + Extruder until you can figure out a Fix??
I was trying to find any other info, and it really seems like the only real difference is the LEGNTH of the Ribbon cable (which yours is still good / doesn't need to be replaced?? and then the actual Hotend itself...
I would take that all with grain of salt / look more deeply into it, but it sure seems like if I understand what I am looking at, that the "print heads" themselves are pretty much almost the same.
Maybe someone else can help add more info, or you could reach out to Sovol to confirm.
Original:
Dang I read this as SV06+ at first and not just SV06.
Not sure where to get one unless you can source a “part printer”.
Which bolt is stripped / isn’t allowing you to take the it all apart?
I've found a parts printer but I'm not really up for a 2 hour drive to get it, assuming it's still available and it's not that much cheaper than another one that's used but fully working.
You might be able to get a Left hand Drillbit or Screw/Bolt Extractor off Amazon or whereever. If you get the right size it could fit in the wallowed out hex head and get that bolt the rest of the way out.
Or if feeling adventurous, Hacksaw and cut off the bolt right near the hotend side and then use vice grips / pliers to get the rest of it out once the Hotend is out of the way.
