Need help with Bargman waterfill parts

[Ralphsegg]

Does anyone know where I can find a replacement hose barb for a 75 boler? The one that fits on the back of a chrome Bagman water tank fill. The original one was nylon with 1-1/4 threads and 1-1/8 hosebarb. All the hardware guys say there is no 1-1/8 barbs till I hold up the broken one.

A picture of the (broken?) part you're talking about would be real helpful...Is this the gravity-fill line for the onboard tank?

I'll try to link a similar one Vintage Theo Bargman Chrome Waterfill Water Filler Fill City Water Tank Port | eBay this is the unit .
Chrome Bargman Water Fill the piece I need is the white nylon part in the back. it screws in

The piece shown in this pic? Does your filltube just push on once the nylon piece is threaded to the body of the filler?

I'm wondering if maybe it's available in some other material besides nylon...

Here's a brass one, although the "port" hole is a lot smaller:
Brass garden hose fittings - male, octagon, 1-1/8 unless my eyes deceive me. It would make filling the tank a slooow process.

Is it 1-1/4 male pipe thread by 1-1/8 OD barb? The fill tube is 1-1/8 ID?

Ya the fill tube is 1-1/8 ID ,and it slides tightly onto the protruding hose barb. the part that screws into the chrome fill port is 1-1/4 male thread. I saw this exact piece in a hardware store2-3 years ago. Even asked what it was for, but I travel constantly for work and can't remember what province or country I was in at the time.

I worked in NewLiskard , just down the road from Earlton where my Boler was made. I wonder if I was looking at new-oldstock. Damm the irony
