Default 1998 Transmission With a Plastic Level Window

In a parts buy I turned up a 1998 transmission with a plastic oil level window in the right side of the case. (not in the oil cap)
I have never seen another like it. The level lens is a vertical rectangle about 1/4" wide and is damaged. I don't know how to start ordering this part.
I was told at the time it was a FLHTCI. The case number is 9816XXXX with proper dotted numerals.

I think I've seen that before on a Road max or Ultima transmission.
