An existing one from another clarinet that's suitable can be adapted, or a new one can be fabricated from scratch from brass or nickel silver rod - either way, they'll be soft soldered in place.
You should be able to remove the damaged one by unsoldering it - heat it with a gas torch until the solder melts, then push or pull it out. If it doesn't move, then it may be hard soldered in place - that will mean having to drill or ream it out.
