Wondering about making billet aluminum coolant crossover pipes

Hi, I've heard that the coolant crossover pipes pose a rather significant issue. I was wondering about the idea of machining these out of billet aluminum, perhaps anodized as well. I was wondering if the community would be interested in parts or a kit like this? It would look pretty awesome in the engine bay, add personal touch, and be overbuilt enough to make sure it can't be a future issue. This would fix the issues with the current cast aluminum options being pretty low quality from what I hear (high porosity, sometimes still containing some casting sand, low quality finish and gasket surfaces, and the inherent issue that cast then machine gasket surfaces will not be as high tolerance as billet machined aluminum). If I've misinterpreted and there isn't a wish for this in the community, are there any other parts that the community would be interested in? Thanks guys.
