Default Bushings For Distributor

The aluminum distributor in my "51 V/8 needs new upper and lower bushings. The two catalogs I have list only the lower. Called Mac Vanpelt and he is out of the upper bushing. Does anyone out there have any suggestions as to who I might contact to locate both upper and lower.

At our shop we use stock bushings to fit the body, then size them to fit the shaft using our Sunnen piston pin hone machine.
