Derailleur barrel adjuster

Hello all,
I am building a Colnago master from the late 80s. The bike is fitted with a 7 speed freewheel and a campagnolo 1st generation victory rear derailleur. I am using campagnolo syncro II c record 7 speed shifter.
Could you recommend me which barrel adjuster from campagnolo I should use to regulate the tension of the cable to tune the shifting? I want to keep the part from the 80s.
Thank you

I believe Campagnolo supplied an inline typr adjuster that was to retrofit the older derailleurs (one of the major downfalls of Synchro) but I would have any idea where to start looking

I've made such an adjuster for my Universal Super68 calipers I installed on my '60's PX10 with STI levers (original levers had adjusting barrels).
Picture doesn't much show it but I pressed the nut part of a Shimano(?) mtb shift lever clamp into the cable housing socket and screwed in an M5 adjuster barrel.

I've used a French adjuster off a Huret RD installed at the step down cable braze on. It was the only one that fit.
