iPod Touch 3rd Gen Dock 'Spring' Anyone know this part?

Howdy,

New to the forum, so apologies if I come across as a n00b. I'm repairing my gf's iPod Touch 3rd Gen. The power button has all but failed and I've been fitting a new one. To do so, I had to remove a screw that sat just below a 'brass' spring to the left of the dock port. Unfortunately, the screw was very soft and rounded off quickly. No extraction techniques worked, which means I subsequently had to pull out the drill and give it a good going over. I got through the screw (yay) but just as I did, the little brass spring thing just shredded and flew off. Now, luckily, it's a replaceable part (i was convinced it was part of the dock port).

However, what is it? What does it do? And where can I find one to replace it with? What does even connect to?

I've tried to attach an image but I can't because I'm new, so I guess you'll have to help me out with that part.
