Which other cassette decks have cover that would fit Sansui SC-5330 or SC-5300?

I've just acquired a SC-5330, but it has no dust cover for the tape and heads. I'll end up looking for a donor unit from somewhere, but I don't know what other Sansui decks would have a cover that would also fit this 5330. Or 5300 as I think they are the same deck. I've searched the forums here and not found any "these decks all take the same cover" kind of thread. Who here knows which Sansui SC decks' cover would fit a SC-5300 or SC-5330?

In an ideal world, I'd find a donor deck on an auction site or Marketplace, get it scanned and measured, then 3D-print a replacement.

Pretty certain SC-3300/3330 will fit, and the SC-77 (which was the Japanese domestic market version of the 5330).

Just checked my SC-5100, doesn't look like a good match. Can rule that one out.

If you look at pictures of the 3300 and 3330, they have the same tape transport mechanism, full logic control buttons and all, as the 5300 and 5330. I'm not as confident in saying the cover from a 1300 or 1330 should fit, because those still have the old mechanical piano key controls. That said, it looks like the frame around the cassette well is identical otherwise.

The 5100 is a singularly unique beast, since it was their first deck with full logic control, and all of the buttons are off to the right of the cassette well, rather than underneath it as would be conventional.

I have both decks 5330/3330 and it does fit I just have one cover though.

I am looking for a dust cover for SC-5100. Do you know what other decks have te same cover?
