Buy some 5 amp fuse wire and thread it through the blown fuse.

It will be 5mm x 30mm this size is often used for semiconductor protection, closest I can see is https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/cartridge-fuses/3618216/
There are companies who just specialise in fuses, I have had to find some real obscure ratings in the past.

A quick search is just throwing up 6.3A as a common rating.
Does it have any time rating on it?
