The product in question has a cast part. How do you do that in low quantity by yourself? Sand casting?

[phasetransition]

There are a number of pressureless casting techniques available. Investment casting is widely used, for instance. https://www.harmonycastings.com/ is a fancier example.

For this specific application, the manufacturing method determines the porosity of the material, and therefore the heat transfer.

CNC prototype parts will have better heat transfer than pressure die cast, and the pressure die cast will perform better than pressureless cast parts.

I'd CNC machine that part, which is much more expensive in-quantity than the casting option but for a handful of prototypes gets you there quickly.

I wander what's the cost of (renting) metal 3D printers nowadays

Word of advice, never tool up unless you absolutely have no other options left.

Metal printing has been available for awhile. =3
