Can you recommend SMMHC antibody that can be used for identification of smooth muscle cells isolated from porcine aorta?

Hi, I am looking for the specific marker for smooth muscle cells isolated from porcine aorta.Up till now the cells are expressing alpha-SMA. However, I would like to use more specific marker which as far as I know is either SMMHC or smoothelin. I am seeing only one smooth muscle myosin heavy chain antibody that reacts with pig but was wondering if you can recommend any for IHC/P and IHC/IF?
