Broken Stock Seedling

Yes right there the metal is the on thing holding it upp. that pic is recent meaning a hour ago.
She such a curvy girl I wanna keep her, hopefully I can figure something out.

That's the splint- by your finger?
If she doesn't wilt badly she will be totally fine. If she wilts heavily, cut and make a clone.
 
Either leave it like that it if it's working and stable, or make a splint.
I usually take a twig or sliver of wood about 1/8" or the thickness of a meat skewer, two or three inches long, lay it alongside the stem while keeping the stem straight and aligned, and hold it on with a few wraps of a pipe cleaner around the stem. . You can also use tape, though I find the pipe cleaners work much better and cause no breakage when removing because they don't stick on.
After a few days the break will thicken and become stronger than ever. I usually leave my splints on for a couple weeks because I forget about them. But it doesn't take that long to repair.
Honestly I'd leave well enough alone until it heals, unless you think there is some problem with just leaving it like that.
