Proton D940 Parts

Anyone know where I can get parts for this ? I am looking for two, or more, Dual Op Amps, Low Noise, made by Mitsubishi as part number M5219L, Package type: 8P5
This is an inline IC rather than a standard DIP style.
I have checked with NTE, Digi-Key, Sayal, and more but no one can seem to cross it to another manufacturer or provide a substitute for it. Hoping someone here may either have some and wants to sell them or knows where I can find them.

Thank you

Are there available adapters? I know you can get little breadboards to convert the old round op amps to modern DIP parts.
 
This IC is an in-line package, style 8P5, would rather not try to adapt another type to the circuitry due to the limited space available. But thanks for the thought, will keep it in mind, as its beginning to look like Proton had these IC's made just for themselves as no one can seem to cross it to any type. I have thought of finding a standard DIP package IC and wiring up the standard socket but would prefer the original part first.
 
Thanks for the reply, they may have worked but found some SIL to DIP adapters in the US so ordered them and then added a socket and installed a standard 8 pin DIP style Lo-Noise Dual Op Amp and worked fine.
Somehow the owner of this unit blew out one side of the pre-amp section. If it was not for the fact it is a Proton, I would have told the owner to throw it away and not bother with it.
 
Panasonic and their DIL parts. I swear, these guys have always tried their best to be different at everything. Result: lots of unrepairable gear.
