For ferrite beads on Ken's CGS and Tony's Oakley stuff, I've been using 
Mouser's part #542-FB73-226 (I'm in the U.S.). They're made by J.W.Miller and 
rated up to 40MHz. They are the same length as the body of a 1/4W resistor. 
Just stick a scrapped length of clipped resistor lead through it to mount it 
on the board. A little expensive at $0.38 each, but I figure it's an extra 
something the designer thought to put space in for, so why not.
