Source of Dummy Radial Engine heads?

Is anyone aware of a company that makes (hopefully) 1/4-1/3 scale dummy radial engine heads that can utilized to scale out planes like the Ryan PT-22, that have engine heads protruding through a cowl.

woo, thanks....I'm going to press my luck; what about a PT-22 cowl

I have found Ikonwest I'm going to check on, but it may be to small.

Here's what I did with an Ikon PT-22. They are 1/5 scale which I thought "scaled" better.

Try: www.darehobby.com and click "Accessories" and then on the radial engines menu on the left. You could adapt one of their dummies to fit properly. Regards.
