Clutch slave cylinder bleed screw source?

I recently replaced my 1990 slave cylinder because it was seeping slightly. I had good pedal pressure and good throwout bearing travel but the seeping bugged me.
I want to rebuild my original stamped steel slave cylinder but it appears the factory bleeds this slave and then breaks off the bleed nipple and puts a rubber cap over it. All the instructions for rebuilding state you should remove the factory bleed screw with an easy-out. I removed the old one but I have not been able to find a replacement. It appears to be about a 12mm fine thread and all the ones I've found in parts stores are either much smaller or coarse thread SAE.
Anyone have a source for this bleed screw?
Thanks,
Mick

Yup, its a M12x1.0
I was looking for a speedbleeder of it and it doesn't exist.
Some one around here should have a spare, since these cylinders fail so often. I might even, I'll check.
In about 91, they put the bleeder on the bottom so it doesn't rub against the tunnel or otherwise need to be snapped off.
On mine I just let it rub. It'll make its own clearance eventually.
