Never seen a re-pop, but every North American bus from 75-79 had one and they're pretty indestructible. Try the wreckers like Ken@Busco or Busted Bus.

Ah, so it wasn't an FI part. It must have come with the later fuel filler.

Thanks all. I reached out to both ads on the Samba, we'll see who gets back to me. The one in Asheville is probably the way to go since I'm local to NC.

Edit: hazetguy for the win! Thanks brother!

I think it was to access the fuel filler neck.
