[R-390] PTO Oldham anti-backlash spring recommendations

[Tom M.]

I once used the spring from a ball point pen.
Go down to your local old timey hardware store and ask for the cabinet with all the springs in it and buy a variety with loops on each end.  It's not real critical.
It looks like this:

I am putting my R-390A back together and have lost the anti-backlash spring for the PTO Oldham coupler. What what should I be looking for to replace it? I'm could look inside my R-390/URR, but it's in the cabinet and I'd rather not pull it out.
