Econoline Bolt
Not sure where you can get an old one, but I did sketch up the dimensions of mine while I had it out. Perhap you can have one $machined. Not sure if the newer M-6880-A50 oil filter adapter bolt would work.

Simple Machine work
Just go to a "good" hardware shoppe and grab a grade 8 flange bolt 3/4" X 16 X 3-1/4". Take it to any experienced machinist and have him poke the long center hole and cross hole in it. If the flange is serrated, have it smoothed and use a fiber or nylon washer.
I have come across one of the Ford Econoline oil filter adapters.However my problem is I can't find the bolt to attach it to the block anywhere.Can anyone that has used this adapter please point me in the right direction.
Thanks
Mike
