Fastenal can get them
They'd need some dimensions. I suppose I can measure the holes and draw some up for their reference.
Summit has them.
McMaster-Carr. I'll see if I can measure some of mine later today.
Man I've looked all over mcmaster for hollow dowel pins. Have never had any luck finding them. Its always the game of knoweing what McMaster calls your widget of choice
Here's what they say a about McMaster. You can get everything you could ever think of. Want a bottle off water? They'll ship you 10 empty bottles, 100 caps, 50 labels, and a bag full of water.

The dowel pins are solid, not hollow. I forgot the exact diameter but you can measure the hole and get it.
Google search shows classic has them

Really? For some reason I was thinking that they were the kind that the head bolt goes through.

Haha busted. I've done a few different things over the course of my days. However these days I have much more Mopar junk than anything else. I also have a Jeep project, a full-sized Grand wagoneer with an AMC 360.
Dura-Bond, part# AD-927-P. This is what they offer, it's actually a SBC dowel, size= .3125 x .565 x solid dowel. in reallity the SBM ones are only .505 long but being that you can hammer them in, length wouldnt' matter.

They have .312 x .500 dowels in 6 or 7 materials, including tapped dowels to make it easy to pull them out next time.

Do they still come in offsets? I've heard of guys using these to Center the cylinder heads over the bore
