I bought a 5C collet adapter on ebay for my 13" SBL. The pin that keeps the collet from rotating is missing. It is pretty small and has a round outside and a square stem from what I can determine. I thought about making one, but don't know if I have the skills for that yet. Is this a custom part or is it readily available somewhere? Thanks.
 
It's a custom part, but it should be fairly easy to fabricate. You should be able to make one on your lathe. It is soft, so it will easily peen in place. Here's the drawing that I use:
