This may be the spring that holds the little ball bearing that is responsible for clicks.

I haven't worked on canon lenses but generally, the LTM lenses are very similar to each other, and are some of the easiest to work with. (Canon probably refused because they couldn't plug it to their computer?)
You could send it to the any LTM specialist or any repairman who works with classic cameras.
If you choose to try yourself the you typically need first to remove the optical block from focussing mount. It either just unscrews (may have some small retaining screw hidden somewhere) or it has a retaining ring at the back of the lens.
Then it should be quite straightforward to the point when this small bearing falls out to the floor, and the one you find there isn't the right one for some reason...:-)
