Not super helpful. What he wants is the pilot screw springs. The Honda part number shown is for a NLA screw set including the screw, spring, and adjustment limiting cap (I haven't seen carbs with those caps still in place for many years, but for a correct resto they should be in place).
I don't know if anyplace still has these OEM parts. The usual suspects (DSS, CMSNL) don't.
Possibly a carb guy like Harrisluv has a set of springs to sell?

 Oops, my bad. I should have looked closer at the part #. Someone else was also recently asking about the jet holder springs.

This will sound a bit off the wall however...have you looked at smaller ball point pen springs? I just checked my carb bits and pieces supplies and can't help you with anything there. Sorry, Clifff.
