Well, I got the labels in and the only downside is they are vinyl and not water transfer (mylar?) labels. The seller says his customers put their labels on air cooled engines - so perhaps it will hold up. Though its not like I am steaming this engine up a lot (or any of my engines).

For quite some time I have been asking a eBay seller about his Weeden label offerings, he a the "regular" that is pretty darn good (from the photos) and ENGINE-DECALS.COM seems to make all kinds of labels. Anyways, I had messaged him if they could make one for early Weeden Electric Engines and they did. There were two for sale and I just bought them (though the shipping is rather high).
There is another seller that has a Electric label but its crap. Once I get them and it installed on my 666, I'll post a before & after photo. It isn't a perfect a match but I wouldn't say its a bad reproduction.
Here is their image from the eBay sale, I assume they will have more listed for sale.
