Is there much hope of me finding such a clamp for sale?

That's exactly it!
Thanks a lot.

That's the usual design, but for a semi-permanent fix I can't see
anything wrong with using Sugru. I've also used hot-melt adhesive for
this sort of thing in the past, especially in comparatively cool regions.

I ordered some Sugru for the job initially, but as link to the real
thing was kindly offered, I'll now be using the Sugru to make a knob
for the kettle whistle.
