I still can't believe the guy found it, told me he did and is mailing it to me (at no extra cost). I have sight glass supplies coming from Frank but that is going to take a minute coming from Canada. I just ordered a 1 1/2" Wick for No. 3 Burners off Amazon, I also have a weight for the pressure valve coming (the last one he had on eBay), and I need to sort out the whistle that won't screw in anymore. I more or less have decided to use 24 hour JB Weld to keep it on (forever).
All of that should line up being done right when the lamp base arrives (minus rebuilding the sight glass)! I went from not knowing if I'll ever get it fired up to having a good chance by late next week!
Crazy turn of events!
