Ah, I get what you mean now. I looked at pics and all I can come up with is that it was fabricated out of a lightweight spring steel for the clip, but the plate that fastens to the belt seems to be a thicker metal. I'm guessing it was easier to make it by hand than search for a found item to use. Lonepigeon (Chris Trevas, The Parts of Star Wars) might know better than anyone, I would suggest PM'ing him.
