I have a ZB custom that doesn't have the special part used for the half step raise on the F lever, string 4.
This thread describes it:

Does anybody have or make these?
EDIT: D'oh! I just realized there is a description in that thread of a way to get the F with a second rod. I'll just do that.

I am speculating, but as best I can tell, Zane must have made them himself. Take a 10-32 or 10-24 by 1 3/4 or longer cap screw (the threads don't go all the way up to the head). Cut it off about 3/8 from the head. Chuck it up in a lathe and drill and tap it to 6-32.
I looked and looked for standard hardware with the same diameter shoulder, the same size hex and 6-32 threads and there just isn't anything like that.
Maybe Michael Yahl or someone else has better info, but that's what I was able to come up with.
