They are easy enough to make from bits and pieces.
As many as I have I stalled, never used castings

Too many things going on to bother listing them.

Good luck. Le 1" stuff has not been available for best part of 20 years.
I would think that anyone RTR that has one would have installed it.
In reality, my experience is that I can make one from pieces quicker than machining castings

I have a pump, but no interest in removing the eccentric from the axle in one piece.

That being said, an Eccentric is easy to make. And I can make one... for a price...

The eccentric is on the axle just never finished the rest
Re: 1" Little Engines axle pump
you might want to look into Kozo 3/4" steamer and adapt his pump to your engine, if needed i could send a copy of pump details for you to make.
