A&P E Type valve casting

Posting for a friend of mine (no computer).
He is looking for a pattern or complete unmachined casting for the piston valve sleeve of an A&P E type roller, it was built in 1923 I believe.

Failing that, does anyone have an old sleeve that could be refurbished.

Any ideas please.
Thanks.

Have you tried the NTET patterns register ?

I might have an old one somewhere here - I certainly have a valve bobbin.

Would that help - it may be worn!

By judicious use of a tape measure I guess.
