That's pretty common to have long thin resin parts slightly (and sometimes more!) warped, so not much of an issue. Did you try holding it under hot tap water for a few seconds, straightening it, then switching to cold water to set it?

Biggles; I have tried the hot tap water/cold water method. It has not succeeded (yet). Thanks for the idea.
