I have a 1968 small block. Does anyone know of a source for correct 1/4 in.  tower clamps that clamp on the short piece of rubber hose between the fuel filter (GF 432) and the steel vacuum return pipe?

I checked all my usual sources with no luck.  You might find a similar one from an industrial suppler.  It was a one year only item, so most people use the 69+ spring clamps.

I been lookin, too. That's a really small size for a tower clamp, so the usage will be limited, and finding one might be a little tough. I'll keep lookin, tho.
