And while we are at it, I am looking for either a 45 or 78 (1 to 1 ratio) series "G" idler for my 16" Rek-O-Kut table.

I think these are 33 and 78.To get 45 on my presto 8N I use custom motor idler with 33 1/3 and 78 rubber idlers to give 33 1/3 and 45 .
You need to play with the motor position to compensate for the motor idler size diference but is easy. Good Luck.
