It looks like a Jensen 2.5" heater would work, except this boiler has a stud on the bottom of the boiler.  I'm not sure drilling a hole through the Jensen would be a good thing.  ;)

Are there sources for small strip heaters for modelers or does one look for something for commercial use? 

Going to clean up the solder and attempt to fix the broken site glass fitting.  I'm hoping I can solder that too as it seems to be a nice clean break.
