Is it ok to glue a broken ground pin back into the plug of my guitar amp as a very temporary fix?

I know I should replace the entire plug and I'm going to as soon as possible, but I'm in a pinch. The pin has a very clean break and I'm not worried about it failing to make contact if I can just fix it back in place. Can I use, say, super glue (non-conductive) to fix the pin to a non-metal part of its socket? As I said, I'm not worried about the broken surfaces failing to make contact; I just don't know if some unforeseen problem could arise from the glue contacting the pin.
