It's not cheap, but here is one. No idea where you are, so I gave you a link local to me. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/173032809378

Thanks Debs3759 I would like to find one with a bit more "beefy" heatsink to it as it looks like its not enough and later on I will be getting a 40mm Noctua fan for this build, that heatsink link you gave would that be enough for a AM5x86 CPU @ 133MHz?

There was at least one type around long ago - it came with a Diamond motherboard with DX2-66 and looked like this:

Posted this in another thread also, but here you go:

If you can 3D print that, it should be easy to find a cooler and fan that fits it. If you choose a higher cooler, you can make the clips longer or cut some grooves into the heatsink where they can grab on to.
