Rear caliper bleeder screws

Anyone know a part number for bleeder screws and caliper pistons for a 08-10 SS LNF with FE5. My calipers are in need of repair. Bleed screws were almost rounded by previous owner and I’m pretty sure my drivers side rear caliper is sticking by what it’s doing to my new rotors pads and freshly lubed slides. And freshly bled brakes in cross sequence pattern as recommended. Driver rear piston was a lot harder to twist/push in when changing pads/rotors compared to passenger side.

Unless just buying a rebuilt/new one is the way to go. In need of a little advice.

For the one sticking, I would go with a new caliper.

Not sure what the part number is for the bleeder screw, although rock auto has a few different rear bleeder screws for a few bucks apiece.

That is not the correct part number. See top item in picture below. You need the one on the bottom, OEM GM PN 15254661.
I had to get this valve from a dealer in Wisconsin. They are very rare...

Yeah and Rock Auto will tell you the manufacturer says it will fit and won't refund you.
