Paul,

The Campy dropout screws are almost always available on eBay. Here's an example:

The dropout "stop screws" or "adjusting screws" come in 2 lengths. If you get the long ones and need short ones you can always grind them off to length.

BTW, the flat plastic tips were in response to the CPSC safety requirements (to protect us from ourselves). They tend to strip out easily.

Make sure to grease or oil the screws so that they don't rust in place.

I'm looking for those little screw thingies that go into Campy rear dropouts, for adjusting the rear wheel position.

I have a flat-bladed one that got bent when shipping my new purchase, and I need to either replace it with another flat-bladed one or replace them both with the round kind.

thanks,
