If you're looking for one shaped like the OEM one...there is none. You can use generic aluminum over flow tank and place it on the same side.

I've used something like this and placed it in the gap on the side of the radiator.

Use google man. Not trying to be a dick, but i when on there an typed "aluminum coolant overflow tank" then hit the shopping tab and there was a ton of them on there. Good luck.

(Edit) Thats a really clean looking one FlipRayzin. I might get that one myself. lol

^^^Just make sure you get a big enough one. I had an issue where the one I had the first time was too short/didnt hold enough capacity. When the rad cap opened and dumped the coolant into the overflow, it would fill pass capacity and dump the excess. When the engine cooled down and sucked the coolant back in, there wasnt enough in the overflow to fill the rad back up. Had to get a taller one after a couple of months.
