what you do is use 911 rotors w/a 3mm spacer, you keep the stock L caliper halfs but w/ 911 rear M spacers and bolts, the pistons are the same as in an M so essentially you build a thicker L caliper

There is a 20mm master cylinder and a 21mm master cylinder that also fit the 911 and 914 application, but I don't know where they came from.

the only ones i've seen in that size range are the 911 19mm mentioned and there was a 20.5mm used for part of the MY69 911 run.
the 20.5mm m/c is
901.355.012.04 (Porsche #)
3.2120-3901.3 (ATE #)

and has not been available, to my knowledge, in decdes
