Having looked for all of ten seconds, your chuck bolts on to the spindle face with three or four bolts correct?

This type of chuck is common C4 'hobby' lathes for example:

So as long as the stud size and spacing is the same any make will do.

Since you have a metal lathe and toold already, just make your own blackplate to fit and then use a front mounting chuck.
