Extruder Stepper Motor
A genuine Makerbot extruder stepper motor, genuine Makerbot pinch gears, and a machined, aluminum filament feeder from the eBay seller cre8it. As of this writing, 6 July 2014, Makerbot is still selling these motors and pinch gears. They do charge a premium for the motors -- $30 USD -- but if you want a small motor, this is the ticket. You may be able to find a comparable motor elsewhere for less.
These aluminum filament feeders from cre8it are largely based upon Wingcommander's design,
