After spending a week cleaning and reinstalling the door latch mechanisms, one of the springs jumped off its post. Had to get back into the door and pull the latch and fortunately I had a spare spring. These springs have flat ends and look like they are specific for their use.
Here’s a pic of the old and new.
And: any suggestions where to replace the spring ?

IIRC Bruce Stone may have sold me the replacement spring many years ago ?
