I posted a while back about this P&W comparator I had picked up - a
mechanical device with plus and minus 3 thousandths full scale, and someone
said that the usual failure is the copper spring (a strip of spring copper)
that connects to the pointer - well, they were right, it's broken - is
there an inexpensive source for a replacement? make one? or just use thin
stailess fishing leader?

You might get a replacement part at a scale place, especially one that does
repair work.
