Hi Tom,
I have a few dogbone type (Body End Dot ) type of resistors, but they are generally way off on the values.
Even some that have never been installed.
I know some members have made a mold and encased new parts insude the molded material. Was it Syl or...??
Yes it was, and here is a link to wonderful tutorial he wrote to make them. That might be an option for a more reliable reproduction.

Otherwise if you use genuine dogbones you'd have to Ohm around and find the right values, then repaint the resistor. Chances are that it will continue to drift though.
Good lcuk!
