Default 89 firebird gta....help

I don't know if this in the right section. I'm working on a 89 Firebird gta with 30k miles. The problem is, one of the oil cooler pipes has a pin hole in it and is leaking coolant. GM has discon the part and i can't found one anywhere. Customer want to keep it 100% original, Does anyone know who makes these metal oil cooler pipes? Thanks for any help.

On the early LT1 cars, Morsoso made them, no known replacement other than buying a used one. Only option would be to find a used one or have that one cleaned and repaired.
