The cable that pulls the heat flapper open broke off, is there a tech article on how to replace those, may as well do both, if one broke the other is probably not far behind.

I'm fairly sure the cable plays a role in grounding the circuit to the heater booster fan in the engine compartment. So your choose of materials could determine where that fan continues to work.
