There is a pic of the circlip next to a ruler on this page:

Since the circlip is metric, not sure how useful the pic is since it is next to a yardstick.

You can get metric retaining rings from McMaster-Carr. They're specified by the shaft diameter, or you can measure the groove diameter.
Judging from the photo and the ruler, the OD of the clip is just under a half inch (12.5mm), so the clip is most likely for a 10mm shaft (but check the shaft diameter with an open-end 10mm wrench).
You can probably have a bag of 100 clips on your doorstep on Monday for around ten bucks ($6.89 + shipping at McMaster-Carr). Or rummage around your local industrial suppliers and real hardware stores to see if anyone has metric external retaining rings.
You might be able to find one in stock at a decent motorcycle dealer -- these are used on LOTS of Japanese bikes.
Whatever you do, don't bodge a 3/8" ring on there and call it done...
