Banjo Bolts

anybody know of a source for banjo bolts for a '78 F150? I tried Motorhaven and all the other likely places...no luck. I also tried to find the push-rod that fits between the brake pedal and the back of the power booster, again no luck at Motorhaven etc.
Thanks for any leads.
James

Not meaning to try and highjack the thread, but what in the world is a Banjo Bolt? And why does it remind me of "Deliverance"?

Banjo bolts are used to pass fluid in hydraulic systems.

I learned something new today! Never new what those brake line bolts were called, but who in the world decided to call them "Banjo" bolts? I don't see ANY connect between the name and item . . .
