Heliopan and B+W will produce filters, hoods, &c, in ANY size, subject to
special order dictates, and it will cost you.  There is s a company in the
UK which will meet your needs for a far lower price-point.  But those in
the US wishing to match bottom dollar and top quality are urged to consider
Harriosn and Harrison in California, a firm which will generate adapters
and filters to meet your needs for a quite reasonable rate.

HINT:  Much of their product line is in the Series system once so common
but now not well understood.  For instantce, for a DIN 40mm (40mm by 1 mm)
fitment, purchase a 40mm Series VI adapter and a Series VI lens hood.  It
should run you under $35.

Why file down a 40.5mm lenshood when a real replacement costs so little?
