Or is it this thingymebob.
I've just dug it out and noticed the end eye is missing. It had a spring loaded eye of the type used on jewellery fastenings, necklaces etc and can easily be soldered on. I may even have the original somewhere.

So it is a quiver type tip? but on the butt. I have one of those indicators with a jewellery fastening and rod clip N-N.
