375 H&H Browning Safari Grade

I have a .375 H&H Safari Grade Browning from the 60s with Mauser Action, long extractor. The aluminum Floor Plate has a pretty bad scratch. Does anyone know of smith that can refinish the floor plate? Alternatively there must be a source for a steel floor plate that I could have blued?
Best regards/

Custom Shop came through.
Brand new floor plate.
Very smooth transaction.
