TR5/TR250 TR250 TR4 Trunk Hinge Pin Missing

Went to do some work on the 250 today and I had forgotten that the pin on the rear trunk hinge had fallen out and lost last fall. I was going to make one today and took some measurements using drill bits and it seems like there are 3 steps to it. I do have a lathe but don't have time to make one. Anyone know of where I could order one?
 
I don't think they are sold separately - best bet I think is find a donor hinge for the part. If you don't have any luck, pm me as I have one or two very grungy and broken hinges that potentially could supply the pin.
