Default 1970 GTO Hood Release Bushing?

I'm putting my 70 back together and from the diagrams I have found online, it looks like there should be a plastic (I'm assuming) bushing where the hood latch release lever passes through the support bracket on the radiator support. Does anyone sell a replacement for this part?

I have bought one but can't remember just where. Might have been the Parts Place. They seem to excel with the small parts.

Edit;
Ames has it, part D179G, Hood Release Rod Grommet
page 106 in the newest catalog

Thanks, guys! I was looking in the area of the release rod and latch itself and could not find it.
