Default caliper pin

I replaced my front brake pads recently. One of the pins the pads slide on was so seized I ended up having to drill it out. I welded it back together just to get by but it's an accident waiting to happen.
Question...does anyone have one spare out of an old caliper or know where I can get one? I just don't trust my welding that much.

I don't think the 97 calipers will fit, MarkR - had DCBS in 97 and I think, different mounts.
I wanted to fit later calipers to my 90 model, and they (97's) won't even fit that, so I was told.....

I think you would be right, My 94' is DCBS, so I can send photos, if required

Thanks for the input. I think I will probably have to make one. Hopefully not too difficult.
