Try registering over at www.smokstak.com  and searching the archives or asking on the antique engine forum, I am sure someone will know where to have a replica made. Having said that , theres nothing wrong with a weathered original.Beware smokstak. The noises from your garage will soon change from bangbangbangbangbang to bang.................bang..................bang.................bang LOL !!!

If you find a suitable piece of brass you could have a go at etching.
