Default broke spring on new valve seal

So I'm installing new valve springs today and I broke the small spring that wraps around the seal. Im assuming this isn't ok to use now. Should I get a stock replacement? Will the seal still work? These are partiot gold valve springs.

I broke one of mine, I removed one spring from the stockers and put them on patriot one. Fitted nicely and tight.
