I was able to find them at my FLAPS.  They've got one of those "wall of 
drawers" things with all sorts of little fittings.  You'll have to measure the 
threads though, as I don't recall what they were offhand.

Same problem as the factory nuts, though.  They won't reach deep enough to 
crush a modern style compression sleeve.  And beware of overtightening, as it's 
easy to crack the pump housing.
