You could also try an old-school hardware store or ACE/True Value.....but I think Fran nailed it

Corvette Central at 800-345-4122 carries some unique hardware and the prices are not that bad either.

The trouble is the Eddy carb inlet is an odd ball 5/8-20 thread. It also takes a gasket to seal it. You need a male 5/8-20 gasketed male thread with a 90 degree 3/8 inverted flare nut fitting, (5/8-18 thread). The Eddy 8020 fitting will work except it is a straight fitting, not 90 degree.

McMaster-Carr maybe? They’ve got a lot of oddball stuff.
