I have a solution for you but Curt does not offer replacement keys for their 5th wheel hitch locks. I recommend replacing it with the etrailer 5th Wheel King Pin Lock - Keyed Alike item # e98896. It includes two reversible, automotive-style keys. The locks can be keyed-alike to match other etrailer locks.

If the Curt pin lock is on your 5th wheel and you have lost the keys you can drill the tumblers out of the lock. The best way to do that is to start with a smaller diameter bit and work your way up in bit diameter. If you have one available you can use an angle grinder with a cut-off wheel installed. You will want to cut the lock off as close to the piece that fits around the king pin as possible.
