If the liners not knackered , with the variable / selected fits of Foxes , theres a chance another stock piston would be bigger enough to ' take up the slack ' if wears the trouble .

Used to be plenty of dudes around who'd do a new piston / rebore , Still a few in Aus. if youre stuck .

I've had several of the Fox .19 and .25 engines from the '50s, still have a few.  Great engines!  But finding spare parts for them was difficult even 50 years ago.  That said, it doesn't hurt to ask ...

 Fellows I am still searching for a Fox 25 piston and liner, it is a single by pass, cast case like a small version of a Fox 35, the piston has  a baffel on top thanks for looking ...the venturi is a part of the casting, not  a screw in... D>K
