I am specifically looking for the rear main cap for a 2 piece rear main seal 350 block, but cannot seem to find one. All I really need are stock replacement main caps, so do any of you know the GM part number for main caps. I don't want to mismatch them so it would be nice if they came in a set of 5 or something. In other words I don't want to buy a stock replacement rear main cap and then a set of 4 aftermarket caps. It seems as though all of the aftermarket caps only come with three or four caps.

Try a local machine shop. I'm sure theyve run into a cracked block at some time. Or maybe one that cant be repaired. They can steal the main cap off of that. You'll need to get the block align bored/honed anyway if you replace the caps.
