Default weld on aluminum nipples

im looking for some weldable aluminum nippled for welding to my valve cover. most people run the stainless steel lines to a breather but i was just going to run plastic tubing instead. anyone have a site where i could find some?
also ive been looking into getting a motorcycle radiator for the car and i i also needed to find some nipples to weld to some coolant plates that i plan on making to "size" down from the standard sized 1 1/2 or so to 3/4 to fit the motorcycle radiator.

if you want to use that plastic tubing, you are most likly going to have to buy a female aluminum NPT weld bung, then put a NPT brass barbed 90 degree fitting.
