I've not seen a cast alloy one either. Just a steel tube type. :er:

Luckily I had a spare 1.3 block kicking about! Didn't have a ring so use an old one with some PTFE tape, should hold and I'll silicone it up if need be.

If you take your existing one with you and use it to compare the o ring section size. This is the important bit.
You can stretch a slightly small one to fit or shorten an oversize one by cutting with a sharp knife, then gluing the ends together with super glue.
