Pretty sure it is the same as 250G and 465G.  Have you tried the usual suspects - NW vintage cycle parts, speed and Sport etc.  I imagine all dry gullies though  :(
I'm going to try to cast my own for the 250H.  If it goes well I could try one for the 465 as well.  You would need to borrow a good (new if possible example).
I may be counting my chickens here, so I suggest you continue the search.  I know how it feels  ;)

You can get new ones here http://www.yamahaspares.uk.com/offroad.html but they have the boost bottle bit as well.

Did you go for it ?  Was it NOS or aftermarket ?

OK - finally someone that provides frickin service for a change  8):
Photos attached - I will get them to Aus then get one to you.
I have a request for a quote for 2 with him at the moment.  They look to be the go.  I have also asked if the installed tube comes out to take the standard fittings.  By the look of them they look to be exactly the same as what XYZ were thinking about offering.  Let me know if you want to continue.  I can probably help you out with a (not that pretty) boost bottle if you want one.  I will be going ahead anyway as it's the closest thing I have come across.  CG has saved the day again  8)
Cheers

So the one in the picture is for the 465 - it gas a bigger tube (apparently).  The 250 one has a smaller tube.  I will be getting one for the 250.  Do you want 465 or 250 ?  75 pounds delivered for the 2.
