Does anyone have a source for a vacuum block-off screw when switching to a centrifugal advance distributor?

I had one, but I can't find it, and now I'm not getting any bites when I search here. I fear I may be going crazy.

I would be interested in these screws as well.

I looked through a big box of 28PCI carbs a while back and could only find 1 that had the screw.

The screw came on 36hp buses, which had centrifugal distributors

I don't have any extras but if you need photos or any other info, I can remove the one from my spare Bus 28 PCI carburetor.

For lack of the proper screw, an M6x1.00 set screw works. Maybe use some gasket shellac to seal it? Its steel.

I'd prefer brass pan heads, but everything I find has a thread length too long.
