I wish to find a suitable figure/figures that would allow me to paint up a unit of Greek infantry aka the attatched pic?

Foundry does a range of British in bell top shakos from around that period, and which look similar to me, which you may be able to modify to suit (for instance by sculping tails onto the coats where needed &c).

Perry Miniatures also do British in bell top shakos that would probably be a good basis for making those greeks:

 



They're in the Isabelino section of their Carlist war range.

Edit: the tails on the coats look to be the right length too.
