Well, I don't know how I could make this part out of a drill rod, but you have a much more advanced skill-set than me so i'm sure it would be simple for you to whip one up.
The whole idea with this new part is to have a better hook on the end than one formed by hand. GT helped me out by supplying a NOS Mauser or Swiss part that has more of a hook on the end when compared to an original part.
All in all this project should only cost me 20 bucks for the weld and a couple hours of my time.
