Unfortunately I don't have any '38 Philcos with that tuning scheme around.
I would take a run over to the hardware store and check the O ring dept. Look for something that fit will over the large 1/2 moon section and that will fit between it the the small drive shaft and provide some friction.
Length isn't too important, it will need to be long enough to cover the 1/2 moon and a little more. You'll have to cut it and glue ends together, super glue should do the job or maybe you fit them into the 2nd crimp on the 1/2 moon.

Good Luck!

Now I think I've got!
