Broken clamp - can't find a good part number. Please help ID.
I've had a coolant leak with the typical symptoms of a thermostat housing leak. So last night I proceed to replace it and in doing so, one of the tabs on a hose clamp broke off. It's on one of two hoses of the same size on the back of the housing that go to the heater.
These are the hoses I mean:

That picture points to items 3 & 4, but that part number seems to be no good.
I went to a BMW dealer hoping they would use the same part on a BMW but no luck. I'm tempted to use a generic screw-type hose clamp but I really don't want to. Closest dealer is a 40 minute drive, and not worth is for a $2 clamp.
Can you guys help me out? Thx!
Oh, I have a 2007 (10/2007 build) Cooper S.
