That would make sense. Color might not be perfect but I think one could be made that might get close to the original in looks by casting one of Devcons black repair epoxies around a threaded insert. The epoxy is good to 250 degrees & can be machined--or cast to shape if a mold was made. Would need a decent picture to copy or dimensions to figure out the original shape though.
No idea on the screw size but McMaster has a couple of long shoulder black Nylatron thumb nuts which might work or be able to be reworked.
