Why didn't I think of that? There might be a size that sits in the counterbore under the spring and puts enough tension on the screw to hold it secure. The screw wouldn't need a plain shank, since we're not looking for true seal, just a way to secure the screw better.

Teflon tape would also be a valid repair as long as you keep it a ways back from the tip. The slide stop screw does not intersect with any fuel passageways.
