I'm looking for something like I have circled in the picture for my RPM oil cooler lines. This would be an upgrade over a zip tie. Example photo attached.
Any suggestions?

A professional machine shop will make 1000 for you, but they won't make one. No profit in it.  Find somebody with a machine shop in their garage.  Possibly ask here: https://bbs.homeshopmachinist.net/

I cross my lines so they do not come near the header tubes.

Drill and hacksaw and file and a tap - no machine shop needed!

Added again: or contact Robert - they may have something they use in the cars that's not listed on the website

Earl's was the first thing I thought of when I saw it. I would go for one of the cheaper Russell's. Myself. I like the way they look better anyway.

Plenty happy to give some business to Earl's. What is the outside diameter of the RPM oil cooler lines?
