Where did you pick up the heat shield wrap? I've had a look on eBay and think I've found the one.

I already have a cowl intake that uses a tapered aluminium tube that I'd like to re-wrap.

Thanks mate.

That helped me find a part number and grabbed it from somewhere local. Grabbed a header blanket as well while I was there.
