I believe there are quite a few people working on the timing cover part availability problem. Ben Hochman posted a video of 3d printing a timing cover a couple weeks back so perhaps thats getting close. None complete and for sale that I'm aware of
 
Got to be careful of printed ones as unless it is an industrial printer, most will leave lines in them and create cracks. The best way is to use a proper industrial printing machine or, as we have said, if NO ONE comes out with a quality one by 2027, I will have my sample ones used to make an injection tool, and then they will be OEM+ quality. No cracking and no splitting!

Printing is fine for some things, but where quality matters most, home printers are not for sale quality! FIBA never believes this is the way forward or acceptable!
It is why we NEVER sell home prints! And ONLY use industrial printing machines (500k+ machines), quality and lifespan are always key for us without a doubt!

We got new OEM ones and 6-bolt ones also, so a full setup.

Zak type clear lowers could be fun though LOL as long as it can be flexible enough, of course 🤣

What are you guys doing in the meantime? Same boat here. My water pump pulley is rubbing on the lower cover as there is no middle cover to pull the top in.

If no one can figure this out by 2027 I'll be pretty disappointed. Leave it to you to come to everyone's rescue if that day comes 😂

2027 is not that far away and we have loads of rescue parts but we would like others to also be apart of the OEM+ sector. But if not we will certainly step in to do molded parts
