Piston Rings for 1931 Series 60 (272ci)

I need a new set of Std. size piston rings for my '31 Series 60 motor 272 ci with bore of 3.0625". I've tried Egge, Vintage Auto Parts, Cars, Kanters, and Bobs with no luck. Egge has a set but would require deepening ring grooves. I believe that the rings are the same for 31-33.

If I have to, I'd settle for one Std. size oil ring to replace the one I broke during removal. The bore and pistons on this engine show almost no wear and I could just hone and go back with old rings but really don't want to.

As a side note, crank mains and rod jounals and babbitt are also very good shape with no shims having been removed. Death of engine must have been 4 very badly burned exhaust valves - one of those bent a push rod (that will be another WTB posting).

Thank you,
