When doing connector stuff, you can almost always search for "connector name pinout". With trrs audio jacks it's somewhat weird at times, tho, as there's a standard and a mess Nokia did back in the day (ever wondered why their earphones sounded weird when connected to newer phonrs? That's 'cause they have swapped mic and ground "pins").
That said, you need the second one from here. If you have trouble with identifying which pin on the other side connected to where, you can always use a multimeter (but usually they are kinda mirrored, i.e. the tip would be the farthest one from the sleeve on both ends)
Hope it helps

Addit3: vids are also available on yt. Search for "trrs replacement"
