On the off-hand chance you haven't tried all possible sources, consider:

Cotronics Corp.
3379 Shore Parkway
Brooklyn, NY  11235
(718) 646-7996

These folks make ceramic and other systems for high temperature and otherwise
difficult environments.  They may have something you can use.  Then again, maybe
 not, won't cost that much to check out.

Ride Free,

We have secretly replaced the small, precision quartz timing crystals           
in these new IC's with improved Folger's crystals.  Now, let's watch 
what happens....
