Vauxhall Vectra C 1.9 cdti - Injector timing - messa

Hi ive got a vectra c 1.9 cdti today i decided to change the washer/seal on one of my injectors because it was spiting out crap so in the proced of doing this i had to take the top of my injector to get it out and lost the tiny little spring i managedcto do what i was doing but now theres no tiny spring in the top ..... My question is can i get a spring from another injector possibly a knackerd one or would i have to fit another injector and also are these injectors timed ive been told you have to get them timed up to the engine ?? Is this true thankyou for your time and sorry about my grammer .... Glyn
