Default Vac line check valve

The hardware stores don't have them. The auto parts store refers me to a company called Grainger. Grainger refers me to the auto parts store. So, without looking to see where to order such a part from the net, can anyone point me to a store, or type of store, where I may acquire such a part.

What do you need it for? Lots of cars used them. Shouldn't be hard to find.

I had struck out everywhere else so I wanted so more input before venturing out. But I suppose tomorrow I'll go poke around the yards and see if I cant get a couple valves and vac lines/fittings tomorrow..
Also, for reference, it's the vac line that runs to ball on pass side of bumper and seems to operate the air flow control lines. It's such a pita to get far enough into dash to really trace vac lines for where the leak is. I believe the issue lies in the check valve that was located directly off of the manifold end: when I pulled it out of the lines I could blow air back and forth thru it, whereas the check valve at the firewall T connector was working properly and only allowing airflow in one direction.
