You can get reproduction half or full hoods from Rustiness.
I stand corrected! See below.

They appear to be Universal model 306, produced by Fratelli Pietra.
No half hoods.

I agree with @juvela; it looks like a Universal lever. Reproduction hoods are available from e.g. Rustines.

prior to reassembly recommend withdrawing the pivot screw and placing a drop of loctite on its threads
these have a tendency to sometimes walk out with use
when this occurs their heads can damage costly replacement hoods
