Two places that come to mind are:
http://www.olddude.com/about.htm
http://www.tomsnosparts.com/
I have purchased from Old Dude. They are stand-up people.
Tom's place used to be called NOS Parts but they went out of business and then reappeared as Tom's NOS Parts. I did business with them as NOS Parts and they were very good as well but I have not purchased from them since the change.

DO NOT use Zodiac out of Bangkok. The prices are cheap and have a professional looking site. I ordered an inner primary and after a month they still hadn't shipped and would not communicate with me. I had to dispute it through paypal to get my money back.

This dude buys NOS (New Old Stock) parts from all around. Most of the parts are still in the original factory wrapping.

I'm finding I have to order stuff from catalogs a lot. If I don't the dealer does, so not much difference. They are just not keeping up on old stock stuff, but I can understand that, it would cost a major fortune to have it in stock and have someone come in once in awhile and ask for a thing a bob for a 93!! Although its just almost like going to into Pep Boys or Kragen and asking for a waterpump for a 68 Barracuda!!! UHHH my computer doesn't go back that far!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Take what the dealership parts guy tells you about the status of parts with a grain of salt. Some of those guys are boneheads. Obsolete to them might mean that they just don't have it in stock. I gave a parts guy a p/n to look up for availability and all he told me was "that p/n has been superceded". No rest of the story, no new p/n, just a deer in the headlights look at me.
I found what I needed online. I don't know what the parts situation is for EVOs, but I can tell you that I don't have trouble getting just about anything for my ironhead or shovel. Might not be geniune HD, but it keeps me rolling.
