Joe, You may find the side panels / handles castings since they are 
common to a lot of that vintage -hp- gear, however the top cover is more 
or less completely full of ventilation holes which I have never seen in 
any other instrument of that series, thus perhaps unique to the 5065A.  
A lot of drilling if you use one from another unit!

If you have the 10811 oven then it is pretty certain that it is one of 
the last few versions of the 5065A so the 916 prefix doesn't sound 
right.  Mine with the 10811 is 2432A prefix for example.

A good find, even if you do have to drill a lot of holes!
