I think that as long as you are not using a liner pull design you can substitute on of your spokes for a generic one at your lbs. If you want to order one to match your wheel that's fine but at least get something that works on your bike now, so you can ride your bike.

Yes and no on the spoke being the same. I have two temp spokes that you would have to look hard to see the difference. Mavic is giving a ship date of 7 October. UNSAT ! I'll buy Bontrager, Reynolds, Easton, or anything else that has acceptable support.
I have 2 sets of wheels so it was never to much of an issue other than weight and looks
I have had a tick or click sound that since the spoke replacement has disappeared. I had thought it was in a pedal or cleat but could never pin point it and at this point have to guess it was in the broken spokes !
