Help finding a 9/16" female fitting

Does anyone know where to find a female 9/16" inverted flare fitting? Common size in male, but impossible to track down in female

This is for an older car, mating a common 3/16" line to a factory 9/16" fitting where the prop valve used to go

The line is 40 years old so I wouldn't trust a reflared fitting in a more common size. Definately won't trust a compression fitting

If I can't find an adapter fitting, I'll have to replace the line all the way back to the rear tee

Anyone got an idea?

Got these so far
EDD-258306
EDD-258350
AAF-ALL50132

9/16 female to 1/2 male
1/2 male to 3/8 female
1/2 union

This is to finish out a wilwood brake upgrade on a c3. Kit has everything else, just not this fitting. Irritating

Try looking at 'the chassis shop'. They seem to have all sorts of odd fittings. Only place I could find the ISO metric bubble to SAE brake line adapter fittings when I installed a link lock in my camaro
