For a onesie you might try kneadable epoxy and use the gutter itself
as the mold.  Use polyethylene bag material between epoxy and gutter
and also on outside surface.  File/sand the outer surface to
dimension after it's set.

Or Fiberglas with polyester or epoxy resin, ditto.  Roll the resin
into the glass ahead of time so the glass becomes completely
transparent, use the polyethylene or maybe wax paper as the parting agent.

Can you describe the part more, and what it's for?
