It's #25 chain. Count how many links and you can get one on ebay. You may want to pick up a chain breaker tool too while you're at it.

Usually the weakest link is the master link. Don't buy a chain breaker. I use a Dremel tool with a reinforced cut off wheel and cut the pins off. Cut slowly on the side of the link where the roller pin is link until the side link pops off.
