Looking for unusual part, or can I fix? 700 1987

I need an oil filter mount for an 87 740 TURBO.

The oil filter mount bolts to the passenger side of the block and has two steel oil lines that tie into the bottom of it's housing. One of the fittings for the line is loose and when I try to tighten it - it just turns, indicating the femail threads are stripped. After I tried to thighten, the oil leak got worse. I am afraid that this will come loose and we will loose the engine.

Does anyone know if I can fix this with something like epoxy or other glue? car is old so I don't think I'll ever need to take this apart.

Better yet, I'd like to get a replacement oil filter mount, or whatever it's called. Anyone know a good junk yard that will ship this part for reasonable price?

Thanks!

Pete
