I'll have a root in the shed to see what I can find.
The cable I have is 1228951.
Yes, that is exactly what I mean (I’m a biker as well), that sort of arrangement was common on 1970s bikes. It hasn’t got to be very strong so a slim slot won’t make much difference. The nut stays static, so maybe you could Araldite it in place?

Good fortune.
