Identify this Exhaust Elbow? (Match or Fabricate Replacement)

This is off a homebrew genset having a marinized Kubota Z482 with mostly Beta Marine parts, but I can't figure out where the elbow came from. The installation doesn't have room for a regular Beta Marine or Next Generation elbow as there is a bulkhead in the way. The previous owner/installer somehow found this elbow which barely fits in the space allowed.

The elbow is cast aluminum with about an 80 degree bend. It has some sort of temperature sensor port. The outer diameter is 1 3/4", the water injection port is 3/4". The flange is square with the bolt centers 2" x 2" apart. Its about 6" long.

If anyone can identify this I would be very grateful. I got a quote to fabricate a replacement out of stainless steel and iconel at a cost of $500. If anyone knows a good marine exhaust fabricator that might be cheaper, I'd appreciate that info too.
