Your best bet is an LCT top cover (PK-213 if I'm not mistaken) with a custom made rear sight. Or you can spend $60+ to import a TWS peep sight.
I want to try and hack up 416 rear sight and put it on there. Ideally, the future will see me chop off my 105's front sight, put a Krebs Saiga RIS on, and slap on some 416 sights or Troys.

Ah, well that's news to me. Never had to replace a top cover, but good to know. Still, I was assuming it'd be a GBBR build as you'd have difficulty mounting the Magpul MOE grip and an AR side folding stock on an AEG (not sure if the Hephaestus one fits AEGs, it might).
+1 on the LCT cover then, they're easy enough to get and mod. This might help, I had this bookmarked for a build idea.

Why not pick up a surplus G3/HK91 rear sight? They're cheap ($10-15) pretty similar to 416 (heck they're pretty much the same thing) and easy enough to install on an AK dust cover. If you google a bit you'll find a couple of guides as well.
