Yep, need one of these. For my '86 TC's T3. It's pretty obvious why! Anybody have one laying around? PM me price shipped. Thanks!

I keep hearing that!  However, I've been to a couple of different hardware stores and nobody has anything close due to the inverted flare inside the female end.  I NEED this piece!  Help!

You might try a place that makes hydraulic hoses, they have all sorts of fittings.

I got it! Thanks everyone! As recommended, I went to a hydraulic shop. $5 did the deed. FYI.......Female side is 1/2" inverted flare and male side is 3/8" NPTF Male pipe thread.
