Try placing a "wanted ad". The parts you are looking for are more likely to be under someones bench instead of with a vendor.

Snyder's in Ohio (snydersantiqueauto.com) carry a fair number of B parts including the rear main bearing drain tube. They offer a oil filler tube with the baffles as original, but it is the Model A version. The early Model B oil filler tube is the same diameter as the Model A tube, but the B version is longer and somewhat scarce. The late Model B oil filler tube's upper diameter is much larger as is the cap used with it. I do not believe that either B tube was ever reproduced, but the later, larger type is not the least bit rare. Try Michael Driskell at Third Gen Auto for an original of either type.
