Default WTB, Female Oil Block Insert

Hello,
I am wanting to use this 87 F350 4X4 oil cooler in my setup, however I forgot to take the block insert off of the donor block 20 years ago. F0RD no longer carries this part so I am looking for anybody that may have changed this out for the normal style on the right and has one kicking around their shop.

looking for the female adapter on the LEFT

Cool

Thanks tbone,

I have an email off to them requesting membership and access to catalog as the site is locked tighter than Fort Knox,(Just ask Jessie Ventura,LOL), must be some very secret F0RD goodies there. I only deal with companies via Email so we will see how this goes. I have dropped companies because they only do voice over phone, how is that, I spend 8 hrs a day on the phone for my theater service business, the last thing I want to do is talk on the phone for my hobby. Plus this is the 21st century after all. Will update with my results, I get annoyed with companies that take 48 hrs to respond, I face at least 100 Email a day and have no problems answering them within my 8 hr shift.

Guess we will find out, no worries on the part as I noticed I had a 460 block out of a 69 F0RD Van sitting in my storage and guess what, insert is still in block, happy days now I just have to remember to take an 1 1/4" six point socket and breaker bar as I understand these fittings are torqued to 100 plus ft/lbs. Should be a good grunt, little squirt of acetone / tranny fluid mix from my modified brake kleen spray can and we should be happy.

UPDATE***Found Part # C9AZ-6890-A*** I have done enough vintage Stangs to immediately see this was a boss part. Called my local F0RD PHREAK and $15 later I was a happy camper... also stock on 97 Exploder Eddie Baur edition..
