I was hoping you guys might know where I can get one, Thanks!

Look at this guy on eBay. He has various kits for K161 depending on what you want to do.

Unless you are planing to have the cylinder bored, you should be aware that there were two standard size bores in the K161. On your engine cover there is a plate that has your spec number. If your spec number is 28161 or earlier the standard bore is 2 7/8. If the spec is 28162 or later the standard bore is 2 15/16. I understand that the 2 7/8 pistons are hard to find. If you are going to bore it, moot point.
