Question Anyone know where I can get these FI fittings? (pics) In a SERIOUS jam!!

I have a Euro 1981 280 Fuel Distributor (that I am putting into an american 280) and I need the fittings that connect the fuel lines to the top if the distributor. I ordered them from the dealer and got the one pictured in the top pic. I need the kind shown in the BOTTOM pic.
Can anybody help me out?!?!?! I need all six and I haven't been able to get any help from the dealer or find anything similar for automotive fittings anywhere !
Thanks!!

You may want to try a plumbing supply house. I can not see the ID of the hole, but that is a DMA (double male adapter). If the ID of the hole is tapered or has a valve, then you may be out of luck.

Measurements:
Nut is a 12mm. Total length is 22mm. Thread spacing is 1.0.
Both ends are flared female (to fit the bubble flare on the end of the fuel line).
Any leads are welcome!
Thanks!

Pretty sure thread size is 10x1.0.
My die set has nothing btw 8x1.0 and 10x1.25, but I am almost positive it is 10x1.0
Thanks!!
