Fuel line source

When replacing my lift pump on my 89' E-350 7.3 I had to cut the fuel line to the filter to remove the pump because the fitting was seized. I tried finding a replacement line at the dealer and auto parts store but no one had one. I'm a pretty good fabricator so I decided to just bend a new one. The problem is I could not find the fitting that goes to the fuel filter, its not a standard flare, inverted flare or AN fitting. I managed to use the existing line and just join a new end on the fuel pump side but I'd still like to replace the whole thing. Anyone know any source for the entire line or just the fitting for the fuel filter end?

Check with a diesel injector pump shop. That line takes special o-ring type things under the nut to seal.
