Default Brake caliper rebuild or other caliper fitment on a Coupe GT5e???

Car is: 1984 Audi Coupe GT5e

Had a fun drive today where the brake pedal went to the floor due to a leaking rear slave cylinder which I have order a replacement for.

But I can't bleed the entire brake system because the front drivers side bleed nipple has at some point been snapped off

I can most likely get it out with the help of a blow torch but it'll burn the seals too, is there a rebuild kit availble for the front calipers?

OR

What other brakes calipers will fit?
