Is this part only in that boxing, or in any Hobbycraft Nieuport 17 kit?

Though the “cone de penetration” is shown on the box cover illustration and the Colors & Marking page of the instructions, the part itself was not included on ANY of the Hobby Craft (or Academy) Nieuport 17 boxings I’ve seen. Moreover, it’s not present in any photos of B1566 I’ve ever seen.

This includes the 1/32 Roseparts part.

When I wanted to model Ball’s A.213 from the HobbyCraft kit, I had to saw a wooden craft bead in half and fill the grain with super glue. Didn’t turn out half bad, IIRC.
