Default Help - trying to find an EGT weld on fitting...

Really struggling to find this fitting in the UK and could do with one in the next few days!

Basically it's for my AEM EGT probe, the kit came with one which i welded to my old manifold, have since sold that (with fitting in) and bought a new one - figured it'd be easy to find a replacement... WRONG

The only one i've found in the states:



And these are the pics from when i fitted the supplied one with the kit:







Ideally i'd prefer one like you've just seen with the larger diameter flange to weld onto...

I've asked AEM if they sell them seperately and can't get an answer out of them. (They're american and seemingly these fittings are a doddle to get hold of out there...)


Anyone familiar with it? Know where i can get one quickly?

Thanks for the offer mate - if it really comes to it i'll knock one up on the lathe at uni. However - i'd much rather pay a tenner and have one delivered the next day

If you're desperate I'll make you one out of chewing gum for a tenner?
