clutch stop piece broken

i recently heard a clicking in my clutch when released all the way. i found pieces of a blue glasslike substance on the floor and when i checked out the clutch i saw theres a white plastic piece that goes through a hole in the clutch when released fully
i aslo saw the blue glass stuff around this piece. the clicking i heard is this piece hitting the edge of the hole on the clutch and then sliding in

anyone had this problem or know how to fix?

I know what it is, the blue glass thing is a stop that is suppose to go into the hole that the white switch (Cruise Control Disengage) is going into.

When that part gets old it will finally break down and fall out of the hole, all you really need is something to plug that hole up so that the switch is pushed in when the clutch pedal is disengaged.

I had the little plastic stop break on mine too. A short bolt and nut through the hole will work as a replacement.
