That won't work too well, it really has to be a complete pin taken from another dead / scrap / surplus IC with a wide bit at the top to solder to the inside back of the wide bit on the injured IC pin.

It's a shame you don't live near Tim(bucus), he has loads of duff ICs which you could harvest spare pins from. The idea of using a pin from another IC to carry out a nice looking pin repair was originally his idea.
