Looking for star ornament for engine shroud

Anyone know where I can locate a replacement star ornament for the engine shroud. I've only been able to locate the full shroud. See image below

This place is a joke.

The star only comes with a new complete cover.

I seem to recall running across a post a long time ago that the star on the trunk was the same size and could be used.. not sure though

They are not the same size, trunk star is just under 3.5" diameter, engine shroud star is just under 3" diameter.

Thx will look there. I hate to shell out for a whole shroud when I only need this piece.

BTW, I searched before posting & saw the thread about utilizing the other star, there was no way without some modification.
