Is anybody familiar with the flat wishbone element that is attached to the off switch and FM(UKW) switch?

How does one fashion a replacement, and what does it exactly do?

Is someone familiar with the clutch assembly for this radio?  Is it metal to metal contact, or is there a layer of rubber on each side?
