The Ford Barn

Finally was getting to fire up the 52 Ford 239 8BA and noticed a good amount of oil coming from the inlet side of the oil filter canister. Upon further inspection the brass fitting was cracked. Anyone know where I can get one of these. The side that the line from the block connects to looks to be a standard flare fitting. The side the connects to the oil canister is not flare and looks like the hole is small. Maybe to meter the oil flow? I searched with no luck on the forum and google. Any help is appreciated. - Jeff
