I probably have one but shipping & taxes from Uk might make it a bad deal for you.
What's the part number on your old head?

I have a 127 010 42 20 which is a 230 head.
It was overhauled with new guides & re-cut seats but the head face does have some scars in the combustion chamber  from shrapnel damage where the engine blew up previously. They will not affect performance or reliability.
