So, assuming my email to the makers of the needle valve (it's a
Swagelock Whitey B-21RS4) does not yield a "Yeah sure that'll be a
buck at your local Home Depot", what are my options?

Woot! I called Swagelock today and lo and behold, they have my part... $.50
and $6.00 worth of shipping, and they are mailing it to me from their
distributor about an hour from me... I should have it tomorrow
