What does a savvy bike mechanic do when they have lost the little barrel adjuster that goes atop a campy-clone caliper? Assuming that an original adjuster will not be possible to find, one might as well get a generic one, rather than paying ? $20 retail ? for a campagnolo part (the only online price i could find, for such a part, from branford bike.)

Does QBP or someone else stock a generic replacement part ??

I have a few vintage sidepull brakesets with yucky paint-destroying aluminum adjusters, it would be nice to have campy-type O-ring adjusters for these brakesets.
