Youngest is a professional welder - he said it would be a PITA as small as it is.
I also don't have anything that generates enough heat to braze.
I figured if I couldn't find one I'd call Clausing.
Luckily, I went down to Shapiro's the other day https://www.shapirosupply.com/ and found some nice scrap 1x2 either hot rolled or forged bar stock. It's heavy as heck. ;)
Milling one from ruler measurements wouldn't be difficult. That way I can get it back to a point that allows me to use the tailstock.
