Shift rod bushing

I'm trying to find the P/N for the grommet (aka bushing) on the bottom of the auto trans shift rod. (The rod that connects the steering column shift lever to the trans linkage.) Mine works OK for now, but it's cracked on the other side.

An exploded diagram shows the grommet to be in Parts Group 4.037. But looking at the parts manual, I don't see a P/N for it listed in that Group. It's for a 69 C10 with TH350, but it's probably used for lots of cars and trucks. Any ideas?

Thanks for the idea. I used some parts from a Lokar kit plus a heim joint with more "misalignment".
