Radio Daze offers a reproduction of the 1942 brass insert, but it is made of plastic coated with some metallic finish to look like brass. I think they told me it sticks in place with some double-stick adhesive. I have never seen one, so I don't know whether it is better than nothing or better than a really beat-up original brass piece.
