Well, called several who advertise bushings but no one seems to be interested in a one off except for big bucks for set up etc. and big price break if 4 or more are ordered....wow...I can remount engine with side mounts like a car application and use car bellhousing and add trans crossmember I guess. Didn't expect I needed to open a machine shop just to fix this thing...lol! Anybody---got some add'l ideas??
Did you check with Mummert? Not sure if he can help but he has adapters & bellhousing mods.
Since the bushing is wallowed out already I would take it to a local machine shop and have them bore it with a boring bar to fit a needle bearing pilot bearing. And reinstall it. I bet you could get the whole job done for less than $50 including the bearing.
Update.....I may have lucked up
Found a machine shop that says they will look at the old bushion and think they can make a new one. I might have a good solution after all!!

I would still opt for a needle bearing pilot bearing in the bushing.. It will last longer like ten times longer and can be replaced when worn out with out making a new bushing ..
