It is a JST connector
Im not sure of the size however
I have this kit
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M5FIDT9/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
that fits all the control board connections but they are too big for the connections on the stepper motors them selves and too small for the one on the heated bed,
I ditched the connector on the bed any way and directly soldered some super flex 12awg wire to the bed and crimped prong connectors on the other side that connect to the mosfet.
That would be your best bet to avoid THAT again
You will need a JST crimping tool as well.

I have a MP Mini V2 and its a decent machine, just has a smaller build plate.
I also have a Anycubic I3 Mega that has been a great machine.
I’ve used a couple of the other monoprice printers, but that’s it. These have been great out-of-the-box printers for me, but they are limited by your knowledge and willingness to spend time to dial them in for anything other than PLA. I struggled trying to get my I3 running PETG, but ultimately didn’t have the patience so I’m back on PLA. Going to give it another shot soon since I know it can do it.

This is the system my printer uses (printrbot metal plus) and it is extremely sturdy. Definitely would recommend, if you do get a cheaper, non name brand you may have to replace the bearings with high quality ones.
There's some on amazon, 10 pack for $8, if you prefer to use Amazon for things.
The White parts are two nylon/derlin spacers. You can find these at homedepot locally but shouldn't need replacing.
Take it apart, turn the bearing, is it damaged or can you just oil it? If this doesnt fix it then either replace the bearing (long wait time from china) or buy the right size. It's more than likely a 10mm long GT2 smooth pulley
10mm Thick Version
https://www.amazon.com/BALITENSEN-Smooth-Passive-Toothless-Printer/dp/B079DMNDBQ
6mm Thick Version
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B071KK6Z8X/
Measure the thickness, and the bore size.
