It sounds like you are describing the cover on a Manzel lubricator.

> Hi Kevin, years ago I was in need of x2 glass covers for a 5hp S type Petter, Mate I hunted high and low and everywhere in between. All to no avail. You are spot on in relation to it being a triangle shaped glass cover with a square-ish bottom. Still to this day I have not found anyone who does them. I have seen some guys make a glass type lid out of flat cut pieces glued together. They are basically a dust cover only, I always just had an or rag tied around my oiler when not in use.
