Why not just get a set of rebuilt calipers. Brakes are not a place to get
someone else's used old stuff for parts.

posted a couple of pics of my brake caliper fiasco here:

I hope it serves as a warning to others :)

btw, I have to say again, I did not apply very much force at all on the
bleeder to make it break. It was short wrench and I was on my side under the
van, awkward position, not a pose where you can really get some oomph behind
the wrench.
