Help finding a small brake bolt

I have these Planet X brakes and the front is fine, but the rear has a damaged adjustment bolt




The spring should go into a slotted bolt vertically so that the brake operates smoothly. Anyone know where I could find a replacement or have something like this lying around? It is a 2mm hex key on the outside that is used for adjustment

Tia,
Ari

mcmaster probably has something - maybe look under 'set screws'

So I took the little screw out and I think you might be right. It’s like a cap or extension that rotates freely as you adjust the screw
