I would just look for the slenderest leeks I could find.
My leek supplies are pretty irregular, so I do tend to use whatever I can find. Even when I use them raw (in potato salad...), either works fine. If you're cooking them it should make even less difference.
You may want to substitute scallions or spring onions. I've used them with success...

Of course you can.
