F&W Star 37, 12-foot: Any inovative ideas for finding a Crosshead?

I posted this in, "Wanted," but for here I'd like to ask: If a replacement Crosshead does not turn up, anyone have an idea how to otherwise deal with finding one? It is needed for our local Museum. Their crosshead had been welded, poorly, and it shattered. It's presently running without crosshead and pitmans. But not running, (of course), their recycling water display. Just thought I'd run it by here. Thanks, Dennis in E WA state.

I have 1 Bob but I have a complete mill less the tail so I don’t want to part with it. 🤷‍♂️
