If I have them, they are yours!
I have a really good Mitutoyo grade 0 reference set, a Mitutoyo grade 2 shop set, and a partial set (unknown grade) I got for just this situation. My mitutoyo Grade 2 set doesn't have the two working gage blocks, so I usually just use a block from my extra blocks set instead. Someday when I find them at a reasonable price, I'll buy a pair of working gage blocks.
Are you talking the standard .100 wear blocks?
Yes, "wear blocks" is the correct term. I have seen them as 0.100 and as 0.050. Other sizes might exist too.
Edit - I'm also looking for 2mm wear blocks.

I’ll try to check when I get bavk in a couple weeks or so. If you’re okay with ‘very close’ I know there were some .100x (tenths) blocks, just not sure sizes. I think I also saw a .100 or two, but since I was hunting for .147/.149, I kind of ignored what else was there.
