So if it is you are looking for a 1/8 bsp female boss, in aluminium if thats what you piping is. Somewhere like here http://uk.search.yahoo.com/r/_ylt=A7x9QXjkxbpPOlIAzYdLBQx.;_ylu=X3oDMTE1MnRoaDhnBHNlYwNzcgRwb3MDMQRjb2xvA2lyZAR2dGlkA0FDQk1VSzJfODQ-/SIG=13pbuss28/EXP=1337669220/**http%3a//www.paceproducts.co.uk/public_html/php/products_info.php%3fparent=7%26productID=raccess/bosses Or http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Torques-U-K/1-8-NPT-Take-Off-Aluminium-/_i.html?_fsub=3207022012&_sid=81447352&_trksid=p4634.c0.m322 Or bring it to an engineering shop and let them Make a boss for you, Probably cost 20- 30 quid do for just making the boss
