You can get them from: http://snapshot.debian.org/package/udev/166-1/

I assume that you are actually trying to fix a different bug, namely one
introduced by the premature installation of base-files 6.2 which created the
/run directory. The fastest fix is probably to just remove /run and be done
with it. IMHO the best way to deal with this is to remove it *and* downgrade
udev, libudev, libgudev-1.0-0 to 166-1 and base-files to 6.1.

One might argue that only a downgrade of base-files to 6.1 and the removal of
/run is needed though, but udev 167-1 is buggy in the sense that its init
script fails to start udev if /run is present, but not writable.

See #620995, #620191, #621036 and [0] for details.
