[SCG] Vented battery caps needed

I am looking to purchase a nice pair of vented battery caps for my 1964 sedan.  

As some of you may recall, my battery exploded last year, taking out with it my nice set of caps. These are the three-gang caps that have a nipple to attach a hose. Kent Sullivan has pictures on his web site at http://www.corvairkid.com/batteries.htm#Photo_4 (2nd photo).  There were possibly two versions of this cap, as Kent mentions on his site, depending on which side the vent hose exits.

While I would prefer the 1964 style (opposite that pictured on Kent's site), at this point I am not too picky, as I am trying to get the car ready for the Hilton Head Island Concours.  I am willing to pay a reasonable price for an identical pair of caps in show quality (or restorable) condition.  If you can help me, please respond by private post. Photos of the caps you have to sell would be appreciated.

Thank you
