AW71 Filler Tube Flare Nut Stripped :-( 700

Just did the monter service (struts, shocks, trans service, oil change, trans mount, cooling system flush with t-stat, fuel filter, plugs, t-belt... not badin 7 hours!)on my new/used '92 745T with 140K. Everything went well, with the exception of the trans service. The filler tube flare nut stripped out during removal. It looked like there was some kind of thread sealer that bound it all up. I have a temporary fix in place, but need to replace the flare nut or the whole tube. Is there a repair kit out there for the flare nut, or does the tube need to be replaced?

Thanks,

Bill
