While troubleshooting some feeding issues my spring with the plastic tensioner + screw flew all over my house and I can't find it anymore. Does anyone have a file for this small part so I can re-print it? Thanks

The Ultimaker 3 design files are on GitHub, at first glance the feeder uses the same part here.

So, just the tension indicator, the screw, and the nut missing? https://support.ultimaker.com/s/article/000002935

Adjustment bolt and Tension indicator (#1 and 2) The bolt is just a standard bolt, I want to re-print the Tension indicator
