Ok I'll give it a try. It looks a little like an exhaust clamp with an extra hole in the middle. The two outside holes are for the brake cables and the middle on is for the emergency cable from the cab.
Just as a fast thought you could make one pretty easily from a light piece of channel with three holes drilled in it.

Can you picture what I wrote? If not I can take a picture in the morning and send it to ya. I think all that kinda stuff is about the same. It wouldn't suprise me if you couldn't get one for a GM or Ford and it would work.

I'd suggest visiting a junkyard, you can pick it up off any pickup truck made in the last 40 years, like Gary said the brand isn't important, they all work the same way.

I remember seeing e-brake repair kits at napa a few years ago with those parts... seems like it cost around $10 or so
