There are some engine harnesses for sale in the Vanagon Parts Classified Section, while they seem to be 1.9 engines mostly, can you use the Junction Box off one of those harnesses for your earlier Air Cooled Model?
Some have the Junction Box still intact, some don't , so look carefully among the offers.

If you run out of gas on finding oem, a number of alternatives are available such as project boxes, small waterproof cases (think Pelican, etc) or an outdoor junction box. FWIW, YMMV.
