What were you playing that got damaged?  I would just get the same thing.

Basically anything from a Bach 15 size to a Bach 6 size has been used (Schilke/Yamaha 42 to 51).

What exactly happened to the mouthpiece?  Some damages can be repaired.

I play a 651, and it definitely does better on the smaller pieces. It likes my DE C cup better than the D cup. It's a light horn, so I think it needs a smaller mouthpiece. I'd say 7c-11c-ish. It depends on if you're playing a lot of high range with it, too.
