Axle Vent Broken - Can't Find Replacement Part

[4WAAM]

So a while back I broke the pot metal axle vent on top of the differential housing. I can't get my hands on a new one.

Does anyone have any idea where to get one? In the MOPAR parts catalog, it's not listed anymore and I didn't write down the part number when I found it the first time. @JeepCares was going to help buy my order was canceled from the original retailer when they couldn't get one.

Pic attached shows the part in question.

Barbed hose fitting + NPT tap?

it needs to come out at a 90 to avoid the control arm bushing. Would like to replace with stock.

I found the Rubicon front axle vent item #6 in exploded view.
Part # 68398729AA.

@Jeepsterfreak The problem is it's on a national backorder and I can't get one. They show it available until you call and it's not available.
