Where to get a 12-point 1/2" socket

I'm using 12-point nuts on my head studs to clear between my 1.55-inch valve springs. Unfortunately, I lost the socket I used when I put the motor together. I need a deep wall 12-point 1/2" socket, but am having a devil of a time finding one. I've tried AutoZone, Advance, O'Reilly, and Home Depot. Any suggestions?

My local Ace hardware store has all sorts of 12 points. I have trouble finding the 6 points at that store though. Go figure, it must be one or the other I guess.
