question about insulation on early TA hood

I recently picked up an early TA hood (with the off-center hump/vent) from the junkyard for $30, but there's no insulation or water-catcher stuff.

I might just get some insulation from a normal hood and make it fit, but I don't know how far up into that hump it goes or how close to the vent.

If someone could enlighten me or post a picture of it, that would be swell.

I already came up with an idea of sorts for the water issue.
