Its starting to get warm so I'm trying to rehab the HVAC in my 83. I popped off my glovebox and found that my distribution door lever is broken. It appears to be missing the tab at the top of the lever and it keeps slipping out of place. The El Camino store has the part but i'm not sure if this will fix the problem, do I need another part?

Here's a visual aid
