Default Idle Speed Screw - 1988 Sapphire

Hi guys, I've posted this in another section, but I thought I'd post it here so I can hopefully get the part asap

Having recently adjusted my base idle speed on my 1988 Sapphire I didnt quite do the locknut on the idle screw up tight enough and now it's dropped out on the motorway.
Obviously now I have a huge airleak in my throttle body so I imagine my boost and other things are out of whack.

Can anyone tell me firstly what this part is called and secondly what the part number/code is so I can go through the dramas of ordering one as it will have to come from the U.K.

Im also concerned the idle screw might not be a seperate part and I may have to end up buying a whole new Throttle Body just to get the idle screw.

Could somebody set me straight.

Thanks in advance

Ollie

your best bet would be a second hand one. maybe some kind soul could send you one? maybe put up a post in general section and ask if someone could get you one from the jumble at national day in a couple of weeks.
