Not that i know of Nick, having owned one of those and search forever I can tell you that it's a needed part quite a few would buy. Just flat aluminum with the silkscreen artwork, wouldn't be too hard to make with a good original as a pattern.

Was that triangle in the letter "N" missing the silver outline originally or was the pic photoshopped there or the part touched up? (I know, a lot of or's... lol)

I don't know why the difference. Here is the old thread where I acquired those pictures from Howie. I did nothing to the images in that area.

Reading it again I see that Howie had gotten a repro decal at some point but I don't know if that is what he used. I remember the old "pie tin" decals they used to sell before the tins were available.

The photo of the air cleaner insert alone, is correct, I have one like it, still glued on the air cleaner. I've had it for years.
The photo of the air cleaner installed, with the triangle outlined,
is a repro decal, no aluminum backing. I have one of those also,unused.

So if someone were to reproduce them, would you do it with the typeface flaw or not? I think if someone didn't point it out, most people wouldn't notice the flaw.

With that little bit of trivia, I bet you could trip up even Galen...
