Silca Pump Parts?
Bummer today - I got a flat and when I went to pump up the tire, I realized the Campagnolo head on my Silca pump was missing the cap-nut that you use to cinch down on the valve. The washer was still there...
Anyone know of a place to get a replacement? Bikeville has the whole assembly (50$!!) but I don't need the whole thing, and besides, I have yet to get a response to any email I've ever sent them.

Yes, the pump that came stock on my 69 bike. It's one of these:

All my plastic Silca Impero frame pumps have long since broken, and I've changed to Zefal HP pumps, which are all metal and have clamp on heads >>>> https://www.yellowjersey.org/hpx.html

as a temp 'quick fix' perhaps a 'nut' from another pump will fit.

I have one of those Campy metal heads but the little blue rubber end caps have split open. I'm looking for replacements or, in the near term, I'd be satisfied with substitute rubber end caps from some other type of article as long as they fit. Any suggestions?

I have been getting vacume line plugs/caps from auto parts stores for this for many years. A little thicker and black matches my bikes better.

Bikes: Several, mostly not name brands.
Screw thread protectors come in a variety of sizes and colors and are widely available in hardware stores. Failing that, air tubing for aquarium filters can be cut into short pieces to fit over the legs.
