Fuel line to fuel filter fitting

My '86 CGT developed a leak around one of the rubber mounting points under
car. I bought some 8 mm OD, 6 mm ID tubing (same as OE) and a compression
fitting to splice in the new piece of tubing without having to replace the
whole line. The fitting on the line connecting it to the filter turned out
to be completely rusted in place, and sheared off when removal was
attempted. I have fabricated a piece of line that reaches to the filter, but
cannot find the fitting that fits on the line into the one on the fuel
filter. I have checked the McMaster-Carr, Grainger, MCS catalogs, but so far
have not found anything like it. Anyone else find a source of this fitting?
I see the archives mentioning getting one used, but would rather get one new
if possible. TIA.
