Olympia SM3 return lever screw

Hi-

I have a 1958 Olympia SM3 that is missing the screw for the return lever arm.  Does anyone know what size/thread it takes? Maybe somebody has a service manual that lists it.  I'm hoping to avoid having to take the whole thing to the hardware store. Thanks for the help.

Here's a picture with an arrow pointing at the screw that I need:

Re: Olympia SM3 return lever screw

I'm not sure you would have any luck at your local hardware store anyway as it is most likely a metric size setscrew. If I was in your situation I would be tempted to just retap the hole to an imperial size and fit a new setscrew to hold the line space lever in place. If no one else jumps in with the original setscrew dimensions over the next day or two I'll pull one out of my SMs and measure it for you on the weekend.
