Default Air Cleaner Decal

So here's one I've never seen before. A 2 piece Turbojet/HP decal. Has anybody ever seen this before and potentially where to buy replacements? Thanks!

Harmons for one,used to sell those back in the early 80's.I bought one of almost all the cid callouts they offered back then.
I ended up keeping the 402 Turbo Jet 400Hp for my own car after the engine was built..I didn't leave a gap as wide between the two,like is in that photo,but you could still see the overlap on mine & know it wasn't original.
Not to mention they never made a 400Hp 402 in 1972.

Yeah, thanks guys. I was thinking repop/replacement also, but I wasn't sure. The font style looked off to me, but I wanted other opinions. I've never seen a 2 piece decal. This is on a '66 L72 car and some of the early '66 L72 Corvettes had 450hp decals on them, so I thought, ok, but not 2 piece. The car is going through a restoration at the moment and the owner wanted to make sure he was doing it correctly. Appreciate the help and guidance!
