Had my motor re-sealed recently, everything went great, truck was no longer ******* oil out of the oil pan, valve covers, etc. until I started losing coolant at an alarming rate, I brought it back to the Ford dealership I work at only to have the older tech who's worked on these motors since they were new in the showroom find a heli-coil the previous owner of my truck used on one of the water pump securing nuts that attach to the front timing cover however my parts department can't track one down as the part is obsolete through Ford I'm in desperate need of a front timing cover in order to get my truck back on the road. Any help on an online store or of anyone selling them in the Tampa Bay area of Florida would be very much appreciated.

those "nuts" can be ground off and replaced with one from the hardware store.
I have a few, but I need them.
