Looking for one of these fittings, Roush includes it with their BAP, hoping it's available separately.
It installs on the passenger side of the blower, at the back.
Allows the hook-up of a boost gauge and a Hobbs switch.

Anybody have one lying around or know where I can get one?

I'm assuming I can get a similar fitting at the local Home Depot, but not sure what thread pitch/size I might need ...

Just doing more googling on this .... I found that the Roush part number for this fitting is 440102-131280 and they call it a 1/8" NPT Tee Fitting

Googling that part number brings up an Eaton Weatherhead 1/8" Female NPT x 1/8" Male NPT Brass Run Tee, available through Fastenal: https://www.fastenal.com/products/details/440102-131280

But I don't need 5 of them, so I plan on checking with the local Home Depot or plumbing stores to see if I can just snag one.

You should be able to get that fitting at most hardware or auto parts stores. I got mine from Napa when I installed my oil pressure gauge.

Ended up getting a piece off Amazon, along with another fitting to go on top and easily have a dyno boost gauge hooked up to it. I still would like to get a plug for the top instead of always having these 2 fittings in there.

Took a pic of them the way they would be mounted, with the side port being used by my existing boost gauge:
