Looking for these products

I am looking for some items I am not sure are made anymore. They are as follows:

(1) "Wally washers". The best hose washer made. I understand they were made by Marshall Brass, and that company is no longer around or bought by someone, and this item disappeared. These are a soft rubber, that does not get hard. They are also tapered from the thicker center to outside edge. They will fix leaky hose ends and make the city water hook-up leak free, also. I have a couple of them left, and they are 15 years old and very pliable.

(2) I use to have a rubber cover for the pin on my 5th wheel. It was a round cover that just covered the pin itself. It kept the grease contained, and acted as a cushion for the top of my head, when I would forget to duck. It was a very practical and inexpensive item that pushed over the pin.

(3) I had a set of wheel chocks that were made of cast aluminum. I really like them. I cannot read the manufacturers' name on them. I lost one, and need a replacement (new or used) I will attempt to add a photo to this post.

These are Items that I have used with my 5th wheel trailers for 25 years. I hope someone out there has some knowledge of these items and where I may locate any of them. I have looked at other items on the market, and found nothing that comes close to replacing the quality or are as easy to use as these items.

I Goggled Wally Washers and had 9 hits,but they are all latex gloves.

You could also slit a tennis ball and slip that over your king pin.
