Broken mute button keeper part

The little spelter keeper for the mute bitton has snapped at the screw hole just about in the middle of the right third of the part. I need a new one and have no idea what the part name is let alone the part number. Can't put the blasted thing back together without it. Also, can I use the metai tweezers from my sewing machine (serger)? I am having a time putting these microscopic screws back in.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?
