When you get your other oil cap from Dave send me your dented one and I will straighten it out for you, it will look good as new. If your interested send me a PM.

I believe an oil filler cap from an older VW will fit. I don't know which model, but I found a VW cap in a pile of parts I bought once, and it fit perfectly.

Oh, and the locking gas cap from a GT works perfectly too!
