steam valve replacement

We have an old European heating steam system in our house.
The steam valve on one of the outlets (see pictures of system, and leaking outlet valves) is broken and leaking.
Does anyone have an idea what the valve is called and/or where we can get a replacement.
Thanks

probably some sort of a gate valve, you'd have to remove the insulation to see what is under there. I don't think it is a valve unique to steam, it looks like it is just a common valve that is rated for steam. not 100% certain that some parts of that insulation aren't asbestos. It looks like the bulk of it is fiberglass but may be asbestos containing mud or support blocks in there.
is there just an indirect radiator in that box or is there a blower in there too?

Can't tell much from the pictures. If that's fiberglass insulation, you can cut it back to expose the valve
