That’s the one, thank you.
Does otto frei or someone similar carry fresh ones?

More likely to find one with Pani, unless someone here has a spare.
With all the conversions made there should be a lot of them floating around.
You would still have to crimp the hole in the barrel plate and remove the burrs so the screw will sit on a flat surface without wiggling and become loose again.

How did it go, any progress/ideas?
I looked through my parts and I have a very very good looking barrel plate (better looking than the one you have) and a screw for the revolving winding wheel, it could be yours for a very very reasonable price. You can skip the hassle finding a new screw and manipulating the plate to make the screw sit as it should.

Thank you Yoda, apologies I missed your kind offer. I need to check back here more often... I have found replacement screw #462 for my movement. I guess I will crimp and tap per your suggestion.

Replaced the screw (462). The threads in the barrel plate held fine. The old screw was stripped clean so I guess it took the brunt of the damage.
Movement took a full wind and has been running since Tuesday night.
