Get or make some fiberglass rope. It would not take much. Making rope is easy and cheap. I would make it narrow enough and long enough to make a number of full turns inside the groove. Pre soak the rope in epoxy, put a coat of epoxy iside the groove, lay the rope in there.... around and around till you get the build up you need......sand it down when you are done....It's not like these things are high speed or anything. Would probably be stronger than the original.

Just a thought anyhow.
