A lot of times you don't just replace the rope, you replace the entire starter recoil mechanism.
If the rope broke when he pulled it, it is very unlikely that he needs to do anything but replace the rope. On my Yamaha, the hardest thing is to put the spring back into the spool. Once that is done, the rest is fairly easy.

I get that, but what I’m saying is I broke my pull on my toro mower and it was $15 and 3-4 screws to just replace the entire recoil pack, so that was new springs and everything. Took all of 2 minutes. I believe that was the only option, they didn’t sell the rope for it as a part. Now certainly you can diy, I was just letting the OP know that the OEM replacement part may be to replace the entire thing. It’s not expensive.

Use a piece of broom stick, wind the spring tight, then clamp the spool with welders clamps. Put the rope through the hole tie a good small Knot. Remove the clamps and let the spring pull the rope in.
