Post-war Hansa Brandenburg W.29 single exhaust stack

I'm considering building the WNW kit as a post-war DLR mailplane, as shown on p. 31 and 32 of Windsock Datafile #55.  The aircraft has a single exhaust header rather than the multiple stacks of the kit.  Here's a photo cropped from page 10 the Datafile, for reference purposes only:



Does anyone make an exhaust header like this?  Other than the photos, I don't have any references to try to make my own.

Thanks!

Thanks, RB.  I checked out the various WNW Mercedes-engined kits, and apparently the exhaust arrangement is unique to each aircraft type.  All the views I've found of the W.29 are from the right side, so it would be nice to find a frontal or top view.

That looks very nice.  Thanks for the heads-up!

I've got the WNW Pfalz D.IIIa incoming, so I'll be able to check it out with the kit's part.

The resin is for the Pfalz DXII rather than the DIII

Oops!  That would explain why the pictures in the D.IIIa instructions look so different.  I'm still on a steep learning curve with this WW1 stuff 

After my original post, I realized that the British marked aircraft on pages 10-11 of the Datafile has the single exhaust, and it appears that the whole assembly is angled upwards at about 45 degrees.  It should be easy to flatten out the curves in the individual pipes of the resin with a pan of hot water if needed.
