The part number is 558-14418. If you do a simple Google search you'll find lots of parts sites... that don't stock it :(

Flip instead to Google Images and look for www.bukalapak.com/ links. For example:

Cover plus snorkel thingy

That one's listed as Rp1.250.000 (1.25 million Rupiah!) which is about 76 USD. No idea on the reliability of the suppliers, looks like some sort of Indonesian version of eBay. Looks to be lots of NOS and repro stuff on there but the search facility is pitiful.

<addendum> okay, so I've signed up for an account. Google Translate is now my best friend! There seems to be some love affair with DT100s in Indonesia; lucky that model is almost identical to the DT175 :) Dunno about shipping yet but I'm turning up things like petcocks for a few dollars, check it out!

Thanks. Finally got round to checking it out. Yeah, there’s a lot of stuff on! I’ll keep an eye over the coming months for something more local, and see how it goes...

Another question. What was the original finish on the engine side casings and front forks? Polished / lacquered / anodised / painted / none of the aforementioned?

Yeah, I saw that too. Sadly, it’s not the right part. ‘76 model has a different part #.

Yes, very similar but AFAIK the giveaway on the '76/77 part is a spot on top to clip a spare fuse.

Forks and crank case sides should be plain (bare metal + lacquer, mirror polish if you like.) TBH I don't think it much matters between plain metal or silver paint, if you're in need of covering up some damage. Depends how close you want to get to "straight from the showroom." :)
