WTB Legnano seat post clamp bolt

I have just acquired a Legnano frame, a Gran Premio, I believe. The seat post clamp bolt is missing.
Does anyone have one to sell, or can anyone provide pics on how to make one. Thanks

I don't have one to sell but I will take some pictures of it as it is out of the frame at the moment if you like.

There are two different styles of Legnano under top tube seat post bolts. I am currently at work so I don't have access to my bike's pics.

Google around and I'm sure you'll find pics of both types.

Looks like the hardest part would be drilling the offset hole straight from end to end in a piece of aluminum rod of appropriate diameter, then cut into two pieces. Following that tap one side for threads and drill out the other to match the bolts shank.
Hope this is helpful

My frame does not have the slit cut in the seat tube/clamp bolt lug.

I assume you're really looking for something similar to the wedge bolt and scalloped bushings on this stem that clamps down on the handlebar center sleeve in this case??:

If there's just a hole going through past your seat post.....
If that's the case, I'm nt sure if those are easy to find as they are not that common. As seemed to have been noted already, you might have to fabricate something similar from aluminum and steel bar stock and a bolt if you cannot find one for your bike.
