[T2] Clutch cable pin?

[accessys at smart.net]

try to get a marine grade or other higher strength clivis if possible. but 
if there is no places where it can possible catch or bind you should be 
ok.

after installing get someone to operate the clutch while you are watching 
it to make sure it has clearance

It is not one of those Clutch cable clips. I did through all my parts boxes - and can't find a spare. Is there any reason not to just use a clevis pin here from the local hardware store?
