Bunnings sell it. We use it, extra layers over the engine too to help reduce heat or cold transfer. If you cut it snug, itmay push fit

The stuff we used is called retroshield and available from Bunnings etc. We cut a double size piece, attached ubble wrap sheet in the centre and folded into an envelope, then sealed the edges with insulation installers tape. Duct tape tabs stuck to one side and around 10cm long, then doubled back over and stuck to the other side makes very handy tabs for what ever attaching method you choose.
