You should find something here to suit your needs. I'm sure there are other sources. :D

I have a couple of those bolts, somewhere. It came off of a CD-14 that did not have the big bronze bracket. Let me look around a bit if you are not in a hurry.

Maybe a private message to remind me and set up getting it to you, Steve.

Bronze eye bolts are difficult to come by and are shockingly expensive. I'd be interested if you find a quality source at a reasonable price.

Be sure to read some reviews of Bristol Bronze before you purchase. Caveat Emptor.
