    Knowing your country would help. If UK shops are any good, try Rapid or Maplin.

    Would 4.5 - 40 pF be about the same? They don't seem to have just a 4 - 40 pF one.

    It's exactly the same, in fact a 6-50pF would do; tolerance on these capacitors is high. You'll hopefully be tuning to somewhere in the middle of the range, if the design is good.
