996 Fuel Door Hinge

This is such a piddling little problem I am a bit reluctant to bring it up. On my last fill-up, the fuel door hinge on my 2001 996 C2 broke. It's mostly plastic; the folks in Stuttgart probably saved 0.001 grams in weight. At any rate, the replacement part that everybody is offering is 997 201 063 (clearly a 997 part), which can be mounted but does not clear the anchor point for the tether on the fuel cap (see pics). So it can be used, but I had to remove the tether. Not a big deal but not right. Anyone have any wisdom (on this subject) to share?
