You are close. When discussing the v4.5 kernels, there are 3 variants:

Warp4
Warp4_UNI
Warp4_SMP

The Warp4 kernels are for all non-SMP Warp distritions. This includes
Warp4 FP13+, MCP1, MCP2.

Warp4_UNI is for WSeB systems running a SMP motherboard with a single
processor.

Warp4_SMP is for WSeB systems running multiple processors.

You probably want to try the kernel in:

w420020516.zip

This reports itself

Internal revision 14.089e_W4

which is the most recent stable kernel I know of.

There are several sites that archive testcase kernels. A google search
finds:

http://ftp.bspu.unibel.by/pub/Systems/Os2/FIX/kernel/

which is probably as good as any.
