Help With a Holley (Choke) :(

Hey everyone!
I'm in need of a little assistance. The previous owner slapped a 2 bbl Holley on the Starfire. He said it actually came off of an Olds 455 that was in a Delta 88. Anyway, we're having some problems with the choke. The plastic inserts (which are indicated in the pictures) are so worn out, they no longer hold the pin for the choke. I've been having troubles starting it in the mornings since it's getting chillier, and I know this needs taken care of before Winter REALLY hits. Does anyone know where I can get these clips?? Thanks in advance!

If you can't find it you can always drill it and put a small washer and cotter pin in to hold it. That carb Is a Holley Weber like they used on 4 and 6 bangers way back when.
