Hood Latch Spring

I have a 1968 3/4 Ton Camper Special. The Hood Latch has two pig tail type springs. One broke. The spring that broke is the one that keeps the pull latch in place.

I have looked everywhere for this spring and I cannot find it.

Does anybody know where I can find this spring?

Thanks in advance.

Josh

Thanks for the response. I does not seem like the kind of thing one would replace with a used item. Small spring seems prone to breaking.
