So far I have had to purchase 2 "spring Torsion 90508-20412-00 , hook seat 3F9-24754-00-00

Okay, I did not buy 2 hook, seats. but the spring. I found a small flexible tubing, with a diameter just bigger than the pin on the hook seat, cut it to fit, and re-assembled. Pic isn't great, perhaps its a great Idea for someone else! It seems to limit the natural slippage, and prevent the bar from moving away from the side, which prevents the edge from falling out. For those of us who are keeping our bikes as restored as we can.
