Just print a ne- Oh... Yeah.

Seriously tho: Can't engineer your own? How complicated is the broken plastic part?

There are some community prints like this. https://www.printables.com/model/194982-prusa-minimini-no-logo-frontrear-plate-with-honeyc

But I don't know how brave I feel about taking it apart again.

Send them a message? They are usually very helpful, you might be able to either get a model or a replacement part.

Just tried it, worked to hold it in position for a bit. Fell apart once I started to use it mechanically.
