Hello AlexOC
A warm welcome to these forums.
Yes, the bearing carries were cast iron and were used from a Ransomes design.
These should be able to be procured from here or the UK.
The belt is a serrated type - to permit travel over small pulleys.
Again, it should be able to be replicated.
I have never seen that plastic replacement before on the LH side.
Hopefully, a member may assist.
Please let us know how you go..
Cheers
