Router bits for antique window muntins and mullions

I need a router bit to cut mullions and muntins for antique windows. The ones available commercially are too fancy including an ogee style which are “S” shaped or a quarter circle when viewing in cross section.
The one I want is a gentle curving upwards (it looks like a parabola). The opposite side for the putty is a simple rabbet. I have attached two photos.

Assuming you need to match the old pattern for the purpose of a restoration project, you might need to have a custom bit manufactured.
I'd suggest contacting Whiteside Machine Co. to see if they can help, and at what cost.
