Anyhow, I'd love to score a key for this cylinder. Anyone know where this might be possible or am I barking up the unobtanium tree?
There are 2 flavors of these, the 110 and the 190. The 110 is in the pictures above, the 190 is the new keyway, also known as the Maxi Mogul. I saw some on ebay recently and people do sell the keys on occasion (all those weirdo guys who collect keys only pay like $50 per key) If your key however is for the 190E cylinder then those are harder to find, but ebay is still the place to fish around for them. Once you have the key though, you're doubly screwed because the pins inside probably wont match your key, even if you shift them around, and getting pins is next to impossible, unless you make your own out of metal rod.
Here's one on ebay now for the 110 cylinder:
