Chris...I am also attempting to find a few 1:20 scale engine room crew for a paddle wheeler.......

The only 1:20 figures I find are for a Tamiya Formula 1 Pit Crew  <*< which are rigid plastic & not suitable

Most interested in your findings....Derek

I highly recommend Holden8702 at Shapeways:
https://www.shapeways.com/shops/panzervstanks (https://www.shapeways.com/shops/panzervstanks)

He may have a printable figure to suit, but he can also create just about anything. I have a couple of his PT boat crewmen in 1:16, marvelous...
