Nose Bowl

Thought I’d ask one more time and see if anyone has any thoughts. I need a new nose bowl for my 1949 140A. Univair lists one that says it fits a 140A but over the phone they will not stand by that. Does anyone have any experience with this part? Mine has a cutout where it once had a vacuum pump and I would rather replace the bowl than to have it patched. Thanks.

C140A S.N. begin at 15200. Be sure you have a 140A. Type certificate shows none until 1950.
