No. You will need to find a '40 DeLuxe hood. There are plenty of them for sale on marketplace.

The answer is "No". Only the 40 DeLuxe hood and latching mechanism will work.

Shipping a hood is hard. Where are you located? I am in Colorado and have a hood.

If you find a hood that is excellent condition, the "too far" road trip might be worth it.
