Can you write the ordinary differential equation that describes the system in terms of rotational moment of inertia, time, spring constant, and dimenions? The moment of inertia of the system will contain an unknown distance x. Once you put the ODE in correct form, you can identify the frequency of vibration. It will contain x. Then find x such that you get the period you seek.
