Update. Seems manual vs auto use a different grommet. Auto is thick, while manual is thinner. Need one for a manual...have a auto to trade <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif

For anybody who may be able to help Albert, here's a few pictures of what he needs. GM part # 391312 for the steering column grommet with manual trans. Has a few unique features that make it fairly easy to identify. There are letters ABF cast into the rubber and a center brass bushing for the upper backdrive rod. Inside the groove that mounts it to the steering column is a wavy pattern cast into the rubber.
Hopefully somebody has a spare for Al. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics/usergals/2013/10/full-4674-7270-img_20131026_201730_745.jpg

I hope this is what you need Al. The bushing in this one appears to be plastic... but here's the link:
