Found - Great Pilot Bushing - Oilite
I know there are lots of threads on various pilot bushings ... as well as healthy debates on bushings vs roller bearings.
However, for those seeking a non-magnetic, oil-impregnated, bronze bushing ... I found this one from Auto Gear in NY to be ideal:
P/N: 0-127-006
I mic'd it out to be: OD 1.096" and ID: 0.592"
I put it in the freezer overnight, and tapped it into the new crank without difficulty.
