Default Gas Cap Spring Broke?

Hey Guys, i guess the little metal spring that pops the gas cap open when you hit the switch inside the cabin broke off. So whenever i hit the gas switch the actuator engages but the spring doesn't pop it open. So i have to open it manually from behind the trunk liner.

I've looked for the part number but can't find the replacement. Anybody have any ideas?

Here's a pic:
