Well...did you try asking ?

- The Royal British Navy Historical flight in the UK
- Contacting the Spencer's ( spelling ? ) in Ontario Canada
- CAF in TX

All of them have flying or project Peggies for their Swordfish.

Also, the one in Sheerwater NS in Canada was rebuilt and flying some years back. It was rebuilt in Toronto Canada if memory serves well

Why not try The Aircraft Restoration Company at Duxford. They are very familiar with restoring and operating the Bristol Mercury engine powering the Blenheim and Lysander which is of similar lineage and a poppet valve radial from the same era.
