Memory card eject arm chipped...

I chipped the top of the eject arm for the 1000. I can still put in the memory card and eject it but I need an object like a pen to go in there and eject it. Does anyone know how to fix this without having to replace the whole front board because the card reader, foot switches, and phone work perfect?

Have you tried buying the part from an Akai parts dealer like VST, Forat, MPCStuff, Armen?
