Need C4 vacuum line clips

I've been through this before. But transmission rebuilders are still tossing parts they don't remember removing. I told them before they started that the clips are needed. They didn't listen.
I found some junk yard replacements after an earlier rebuild. Now, junk yard C4 parts are a lot harder to find and C4 parts suppliers don't offer these. I would advise everyone to remove these parts before handing your EB over to a transmission shop. Any help finding some replacements, would be much appreciated.

20-30 years ago tranny shops often took your C4 and gave you one off their shelf. I got a shorter '75 C4 dip stick tube in my '77 after a rebuild. At least I got an EB C4. I do like the shorter one a little more tho. Now it's hard to find a rebuilt C4 in the shops. This last rebuild I was focused on making sure they didn't install another shift kit. The last one was a PITA to return to original.

Good news. I found them at a transmission shop that saved the small parts they swept up after rebuilds.
