Thomas -

I was under the impression that was a UNF nipple?  I thought the only BSF on
a 100 was on the motor and gearbox, no where else....

Regardless, you can get a BSF replacement from one of my all time favorite
cottage industry type suppliers, Tim Hodgekiss in the UK.  He has a 1" BSF
nipple  (part #831) here:

Very nice guy, first rate.

Another option is to get a 3" 1/4" UNF nipple, cut off the threads and
then run a BSF die on the end....
