The Min by Eric winter hatch is probably the nicest I've used, though it is a little too long, which is easily fixed with a file.I have some of the Sunrise ones, which are hard or impossible to find, I still prefer the MbyE part....The SD-24 hatch is not the same, it's made to fit a 48" fan....I've been considering lobbying Cutting Edge Scale models to make some through Shapeways(and some steam generator pieces)...a sprue of 6 would fill my needs for a few years!..Nice mesh can be found in old coffee maker filters.....BLMA might have the horn you seek....and they're very nice castings..

I've since lowered the hatch by 0.5 mm and I think it proportions out a little better overall. You are correct about the can part of the steam generator having a screen around it, similar to:However with the limitations of 3D printing I'm not sure that a mesh made with the minimum printing requirements would look that good. I think for this, either a brass mesh strip or some type of tea bag mesh might fit the bill a little better.
