Leybold Trivac D2A vacuum pump

I know people will say these high vacuum pumps are obsolete:D, but does anyone know where I could maybe find
a not too expensive oil demister that will fit this? All the ones I've found soo far are over $125:o.

Flanges on this model I believe are KF16.

Are there any manuals for this vacuum pump still floating around by any chance? Thanks

An auto fuel filter , the clear plastic type, with a pleated cellulose element works well. A little stainless steel sponge pushed inside makes it coalescent as well.

The large one (for truck) cost a whopping $1.50.
Install so the oil drains back to the pump.
