Just cut off the front end of a rear fender, and re-shape the area behind the oil tank.

Nope, if you cut the tail, you'll never get the finished edge right again without sheetmetal tools & skills. It will still never be quite as nice, I don't think.

Cut and Flip

It looks like they cut a front fender from the top and then flipped it, so the bottom is now the top.

I'm not the metalsmith expert by any means, but you could chop it somewhere in the middle (where it would be under the seat) and then put it together. Not too difficult to cover up unless your keeping the stainless look.

You could try Domiracer in Ohio, they may be able to match something off of the picture. These guys have a lot of NOS & replica fenders and are keen about vintage iron.
