The news today (8/10/20) is that engineers at Tinker Air Force Base have reverse-engineered and 3D printed an anti-icing gasket for the Pratt & Whitney TF33-P103 turbofan which is the original engine in the B-52. It's their first 3D printed part successfully installed and tested in an engine. apparently they have already printed 30 and need more for the rest of their fleet.
I estimated dimensions from a picture and recreated the part myself. as such it looks right but don't install it in your own TF33-P103 ;)
