Default Where to buy aluminium weld-on vaccum fittings

I searched for "aluminum elbow pipe" "aluminum 90 degree tube". I want to find the small OD aluminum tubes/pipes that are welded on CAIs and turbo kits for vacuum or breathers. Anyone know where to find them?

I found some straight ones. What about 90 degree ones? https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&...1c.xcMnsLKRUik

Would a brass elbow hose barb fitting work (like what you find on a compressor housing)? I've never seen a 90* aluminum one. PIE CUTS MAN! make your own lol

Yea I do have to cut one piece in half at 2 angles to make a 90 degree one. I already use a brass NPT fitting but even though it's the thickest aluminum pipe for turbo applications, and the fitting is grabbing well, it might still be leaking, even with liquid thread sealant.
