Measurements are the only things that matter. Tracing from old scale drawings is really just tracing other people's mistakes:

The dimensions shown on this original Daimler Benz blueprint are no different than the DB 601. Note that German engineering "blueprints" are red, not blue. http://stores.ebay.com/FLUG-ARCHIV-20/_i.html?_nkw=109&submit=Search&_sid=119633348

Yesterday's high tech is today's garage tech. One of the most prevalent methods of shaping or forming in aviation is to stretch a firmly fixed sheet of metal over a form or buck using a car jack, for example.

Messerschmitt Me 262 engine parts catalogue (ersatzteilliste) | Junkers Jumo 004 B-1 flugmotor 1944. Reprinted 2012. The graphics are as per the 1944 edition but the publisher has "brightened" it up a bit - no change of colour in the type but the Junkers logo has been switched from being "raised embossed" to white. The 1944 cover was a brownish black; the publisher has elected to go to a "bluer" gray for aesthetic reasons. The original looks a bit dull compared to this new edition which looks fresh.
