Default A/C Blend door

I’m fairly certain this broken spring(see photo) is the problem with my blend door not opening. I’ve replaced the vacuum actuator and vacuum is present at the hoses when A/C is selected. My question is where might I find one of these springs? I would imagine they’re used on other GM cars, but what do I know? It would be much appreciated if one of my fellow Corvette enthusiasts could post a photo of one that’s installed correctly. Now to the worst part of my post, I broke the damn thing myself.
