Anything off here fit the bill?

Any suggestions?
Well since you want to keep a nice classic vibe, why not just go for something like a Cinelli Priest that fit the bike well?

I need to fit a front brake on a track bike, bars are a bit similar in shape to cinelli criterium, bike is from the seventies. Build isn't fully period, and doesn't have to be, but I'd like to avoid something out of place like a gold finger / dirty Harry / bmx type of lever. Also want to avoid road levers as I don't like the idea of a dummy lever on one side. Best I can think of so far is dia compe guidonnet. Something discreet and basic (plain aluminum like the old weinman stuff, but with an appropriate lever shape...
Any suggestions?
