I missed which body this is for.  I recently replaced my entire rewind crank
(for a 4T) courtesy John H. for a very reasonable sum (just a bit beyond $10
as I recall).  It's the way to go IMHO.

Two possible solutions:  bend the pin (paper clip section) a little, or 
alternatively, flatten/distort it a little so it's wider (smash it with a 
ball peen hammer -- hey, it's a piece of paperclip -- if you mess it up,
make 
another!).  Don't alter any Oly parts from the camera itself.  No need.

(Provided until John H. or Clint chimes in with the REAL answer)
