Broken Oil Screen Retainer Wire

Hello all-

As my multi-year overhaul (thank you COVID) continues, I'm finally reassembling my trusty A4. In the process of removing the oil screen from its frame, I broke the wire holding it in place. Does anyone know what kind of wire it is and where I could find a replacement. I didn't see anything in the Moyer shop besides a replacement frame and screen. Any input would be appreciated.

Hello.

In the A4 parts manual the wire is described as '9" x .045'. I don't see any other information about the type of wire. I used stainless seizing wire.

Jack.
