Expansion tank bleeder screw

I had the "low coolant" warning today. Last time my X was at the dealer , they changed a top hose and topped the coolant. When I got home (Jan 7) it smelled like burnt coolant but saw some coolant overflow by the bleeder screw (expansion tank). I thought this was normal at the time. So today after I got the warning message , I double checked it again and noticed the dealer probably reinstalled what seams to be a damaged bleeder screw. The head was half way teared apart. I ripped the head off and unscrewed the threaded part with a phillips screwdriver.

My question is do dealer have this part usually in stock cause if not , I'm literally SCREWED ( ha ha ha ) for work on Monday. Tomorrow I'm going on the hunt for it.
Anyone in Montreal area with a spare screw? ( I had to ask lol )
