Mini Cooper R56 2007 thermostat housing bleed screw.

Hi, I have managed to destroy my thermostat housing bleed screw, anyone know where I can get a new one.
The crosshead on the screw snapped off in situ, managed to get the remains out of the housing by sharpening a welding rod down to a chisel shape, gently tapping with a hammer to form a trench across the remains of the screw and unscrew it successfully. If this happens to you it is easy to achieve!
