Or, the place 'we' buy fittings for breather kits sell bulkhead connectors?

Hadn't thought of them, I think it needs to be 3/16 internal thread which may be a challenge

Isn't the thread irrelevant? As long as the nylon air line from the compressor fits in one side of the bulkhead connector (push fit connector?) and then the copper line from the diff / actuator fits into the other side, you can drill for any size connector through the diff housing? No?

The copper tube is terminated in a flare end with a 3/16 brake pipe style male fitting on the end. You can just see it in this picture I did not include in the article. Devon 4x4 do the replacement fittings but as the casing tapped thread also appears to be missing/non-existent I think it will not seal correctly which is why I am considering my options.

Looking closely, it really looks like casing was never tapped. It looks like the fitting was installed with a hammer
