I think that one is molded in place vs a separate part isn't it?

I'd fabricate one or look for a junk shell to cut up .. or both. Do a homemade that might be removed later and cross your fingers for a cheap shell.

  I don't think it would be too hard a part to make from a chunk of plastic and some brass tube. (I think that has round ports...???)

  An aftermarket part, or brass one from another company might be a possibility too. That would again depend on if it is cast to the shell, or if there are variations to the stack that may have inspired an after market part.

  In the end it's kind of ironic seeing the tunnel motors were built for improved cooling, eh? 

Making a casting off another is also possible, but I think making one would be just as easy once you make a mold, recast it and cleaned it up.
