K6 brake shoe clip?

Finally got front brakes relived, sleeved the wheel cylinders an put in new wheel bearins and races. Plus got all parts sandblasted and painted! BUT somewhere in the stages one of the brake shoe clips got lost! These clip to the inside of the backing plate and keep the brake shoe from flopping around. Does anyone have one or two I could buy? I’d like to get the K6 to the IHC show in Troy, OH August 24-26, so I’m running out of time! Text/call Bruce at 9 three 7- two7one-2five8six
Thanks

I think the fords used a similar part. Does it look like this one?

Lars,

Found the last K6 clip at OldInternationalParts in Canada. Got it and the wheel on, BUT the guy messed up skimming the drum and it is oblong now! So, now I'm hunting for two K6 front brake drums..14"
