I believe the ElCamino pitman arm may work. Does it point to the rear and does it look like the Camaro pitman arm?
These are non-wear parts so are not available from GM.
You will enjoy the car much more if you go with a higher effort box in either a 12.7 or 14.5 ratio. The 14.5 was used in late third gen's, with Z/28 or the Trans Am package. The 12.7 was used in the third gen IROC or Trans Am. We put one of these in our 73 Camaro and love it.
