Brake caliper slider pin bent.

Hi all.
Whilst I was stripping my brakes, I found that the slider pin, (biggest of the 2), on the right hand front caliper, was bent, which caused it to be virtually seized in. I could do with sourcing one of these, but my local dealer reckons that they are not an item listed separately to the caliper, therefore, I'd have to buy a new caliper. I've no idea how it got bent, as it's the first time I've messed with these brakes. Does anyone know where I might get hold of one, or experienced the same problem?
Thanks!
