One manufacturer is "Hexcell" which sell aluminum honeycomb for use as a filler
in aircraft panel construction.  For something that may be perfect (honeycomb,
precut, and the size of the MAF) look at a mid/late '80s Digital MAF sensor
made by Rochester.  It was used on the V6 Camaro and Firebird (probably a lot
of other GM's too)   The end screens are a honeycomb unlike the fine-wire
screens used on the Bosch Analog MAF sensors.  They are removable just like the
Bosh MAF screens
