If you can draw it on a fag packet, with dimensions I should be able to turn it into a 3D CAD model for you. If you can find someone to knock up a 3D print then you can test for fit. I wouldn't worry about print material as you only want it as a template so it doesn't need any strength or uv resistance. I would agree that CNC matching is likely to be to costly unless you know someone who can do it for you. Unless it is very complex simple machining should be suitable. CNC is only worth while for complex shapes or making batches otherwise the set up costs make it prohibitive.
