Just a comment from the other side of the counter. Don't take offense I work at a parts house in a small town in Washington state. I have had requests simular to yours and have spent hours on the phone and computer tracking down the right part. As in your case bushings are to numerous and different to try to stock all the possibilities. So trying to find an Original part or someone to make it usually takes longer than if you just went home and made one. As you said out of a pice of pipe. You have to realize that on these half a centry old machine we love to work on "work" is the key word. But every bit of it is fun that is why we do it. Brad
