Default I'm having problems with an electric start gas engine

I have a EME 35cc gas engine with electric start and after just a few starts the small electric motor seized. I am using a 3 cell 30c Lipo as the starting battery for the engine. It started ok the first couple of times...then the electric motor started to smoke and then seized. The engine runs great, no issues there, but the electric motor needs replaced.

Where do I get a replacement electric start motor, or is there a better option to use in replacement of the electric motor that came with the engine.

Any advise would be welcome.
Thanks and Aloha,
Bob Paris
