Default Model B oil breather tube & cap

I'm missing my oil breather cap for my '32 Model B 4 cyl as I get it going. Probably around in the corner of a box somewhere, but I can't think where.

Anyone know if some years Model A caps are the same size? I see a reproduction breather tube with a different cap on Snyders that says it's fits Model As, and is very similar to Model Bs, but I just need the cap for an original tube.

I know at least some Model As had smaller diameter tubes.

The bottom of my tube where it inserts into the block is just under 1.5".
The top of the tube is 2.5" across the outside flange (which is very slightly flared).

By the way, this is for my 32 pickup, so I'm not using the engine in a Model A. No need for true A authenticity.

Thanks.

B models were all larger tubes than A models
the fitting into the block is the same so you inter change
