It's called a "stir bar" and I'd suggest eBay, where you can probably find one for less than $5 including shipping. The more usual sources would be retailers like coleparmer.com and fishersci.com.
You can put together a stir plate for less than $30 though (

Also, if memory serves the magnets in the March pumps surround the impeller. I'm not 100% sure they'd turn a bar that was a few inches removed from the hub.
