223 I6 Parts

I recently joined the ranks when I purchased a 1963 F100 with a 223. There were a couple of stuck valves after the previous owner rebuilt the engine and then let it set for 4 years - bent the push rods, etc. That's all been taken care of but what I need to find are replacements for the oil inlet tube and oil outlet tube for the rocker arm shaft - they look like they were chewed on. Does anyone know where I might find these two items? Also looking for new head bolts - Help!

Don't know about the head bolts, but have you tried at NAPA? They often have things that are a bit off the wall. Either that or you could possibly try finding the right sized tube & bend it yourself. Just a thought.

It looks like Obsolete has the head bolts but the oil tubes are a different matter - those are proving hard to find. I thought about bending my own but there are some integral flanges that I can't duplicate. Maybe someone has a 223-I6 they are parting out.
