I've seen pictures of the Euro level dial next to the light switch on Euro cars.

On google I've come across what appears to be a retro kit, (picture attached).

does anyone know if this is a kit and what the part number might be?

There is no kit from the factory, you have to buy all the individual parts. Someone may sell a kit with everything but it will likely cost more than buying the pieces separately.

That said... I believe the correct trim bezel with Z-shaped cutout for the steering column escutcheon is NLA, but you can get the type shown in that photo and use a Dremel to add the appropriate "Z". Also, that photo shows the older setup; the period-correct E500E level adjust uses a dial with 3 ports, nifty purple tubes, etc.

I installed the adjustable gig on my C126. It is a kool feature, but hardly a chick magnet. I'd opt for new Intake Tubes instead, Just Sayin!
