That's the one that connects to the metal line going down to the vacuum modulator for the TH350 transmission?

Try Ace Hardware in the brass section. It's a simple 1/4 NPT x 3/16 Ferrule.

This fitting connects to rubber vacuum hose that then attaches to the vacuum ball. I would like to find an original part.

Ok, I'll try to find one for you. I have access to about 15 units, A/B and G body, most still have their engines, about 60% are 231 Buick, maybe 20% Olds 307, remainder are Chevy.

Chevy 350s are pulled, but have I think 2 with early 80s 305 are still available.

This one is similar to what I mentioned...

3/8 HB x 1/4 FIP

I.E.: 3/8 Hose Barb x 1/4 Female Iron Pipe (NPT).

Parts like this are plentiful and about $3.50 each.
