I tried using JB Weld to re-attach the stud/pin and that worked fine for about a day. Then it broke again!
I have scanned the Internet and cannot find any references to the lock.
Does anyone here have a lead or suggestion where I may find an old one or have this one repaired?
Thanks!

Take it to a lock smith. Maybe he will recognize it or if the builder is still in business contact them.
Ah the suggestion of a good machinist is perfect.
