Default what to replace a timber lintel with?

At 5 foot by 9 1/2 by 4 3/4 inches it sounds more like a step than a
lintle. You might pour the concrete yourself if you can set up the
bottom to jold it in place until it sets. That's the most waterproof way
of doing it. Failing that Make th epiece up with layers of wood treated
with preservative. That's the simplest and quickest way.

Or you could get a timberyard or a tree surgeon to cut you a chunk of
tree.
