need a simple part

I have been to the salvage yards the stealerships and nobody around the stl mo area has a coolant reservoir tank. The stealership says its obsolete. This one yard I talked to gave me a maybe but no guarantee that it wouldn't leak and they were out of state. I checked with LMC and they don't have them for our trucks. Any suggestions. Mine leaks at the seam where the top and bottom join. This is really starting to irritate me. I looked at my mother in laws mini van tonite for some issues she has and noticed it is similar but mounts backwards form ours, and I didn't get to measure the large hose diameter before she left. It also has the radiator cap on the tank. What do ya'll think?
