Front Brake Hose Bolt
I broke the head off of mine but was able to get the rest of it out of the caliper. So the caliper and hose are fine, I've got new washers, just need a new bolt. I've looked as many places as I can think of, but I'm in a hurry, maybe I'm missing something. Caliper repair kits dont have them, can't find them as a standalone part on rockauto or autozone. I even looked at pictures of new calipers and it appears that they don't come with them. Can't just source one from a hardware store because there are various holes in them, I guess to let the fluid flow.
Can someone please help me find one!? I'm on a crappy shift the next two weeks and can't do a junkyard trip

MANDERBACH FORD in Temple PA has 2 = 610-929-3683.
SUNBURY MOTOR CO. in Sunbury PA has 3 = 570-286-7746 x 266.
Other PA dealers may have this bolt, you'll have to call and ask.

Thank you cmanka and ND!!! Cmanka, can't believe in my years of working on cars, I've never heard that term! ND, you were the one I was actually hoping would respond because I was about to call Ford to order this, but...
The solution for me was at AdvanceAuto down the street. I'm no fan of theirs, but I wanted this done quick. In their help section, they had a "Help!" item, Dorman part# 13947. They couldn't find it listed under the 79 f250 I have, but it looked perfect and I brought it home and it works great! My biggest shock was that rockauto (my favorite) and Autozone had no offerings on the subject at all. JBG did have them in stock I found but I really didn't want to wait on this.
Now on to bleeding the brakes and I'll be on to the next project.
