Tom,

Replacement extractors are availble from Tom Heller - Lugerdoc on the Forum. They are reasonably good quality, although I had to gently bend mine for a proper fit. He probably has firing pins as well and it has been recommended to also replace the bolt stop for safety - Tom has them.
For the rest you are probably on your own. I have never heard of a .38 Auto C-96. As I understand, the original .30 Mauser round is relatively hot and it could be that the failure to eject is due to a mild load - the bolt not completing full cycle. You might consider re-installing the springs that came with the gun - the Wolff spring kit is not for .38 Auto and who knows how the original springs might have been tuned for this cartridge. The C-96 is an inherently dangerous gun and you should NOT regard my casual comments as expert advise. Take every measure to ensure safety.
