This is apparently how I fixed it many moons ago:

I my case the the plastic pivot points were too worn down to reattach the metal spring. The microswitch itself is almost symmetric so I simply moved the spring to the opposite end of the microswtich and remounted the switch in reverse orientation. It's a bit fiddly getting the switch back in due to the wire routing, but can be done and works fine for me.

I do recall buying a number of microswitches from digikey but I can't remember if any of them were suitable replacements.
