190e 2.6L timing / front head cover

I am having a tough time finding a upper front head cover(the cover over the cam sprocket that the distributor cap mounts to) for a 1992 190e 2.6L. The dealer wants way too much for it, which is would put me over budget for the repairs i am attempting.

I had a little fender bender and decided to fix it myself as the other option would have been to scrap the car. Being that I have taken great care of the car I didn't want to get rid of it just yet. Unfortunately, once i got in elbow deep, i found that the radiator smashed the distributor cap and effectively bent the top of the front head cover making an uneven surface for the distributor to mount on. I think the car would still run with the bent cover but i would like to replace it while i have it torn appart.
