I have a broken tripod quick release plate. Can I get spare bits?

I have a Giottos qr plate that has lost the camera screw thingy. I'd like to repair it if I can but have no idea what the camera screw thingy is actually called. Any thoughts? Presumably on eBay someone will have it!

Ha! Turns out (I think) to be a D Screw 1/4”. And Mr eBay did have one.

The correct thread is 1/4" UNC. 1/4" Whitworth is probably close enough but UNC has the correct thread form (tooth angle).
