Default Gas Door Part?

Last night when I filled the tank I broke a piece on the gas door. This piece is attached to the underside of the door, and seems to be attached via an arm to the spring.
Anyone know where I can get one of these plates? Or at least what it is called?
Thanks

A hinge? - I've seen these parts listed in the on-line catalogues of some of the supporting vendors, or you might try any of the used parts vendors, or this forum's parts for sale/wanted section.
