If I need to, and if they're available, I can order pinons in 0.58 and 0.63 modulus.

Again, many thanks,

Cool, glad it might help. Along with just the pitch/modulus, also pay attention to the tooth geometry (pressure angle), as there can be variation there even with identical pitch gears. I have a feeling a very large/detailed picture will be needed for sdp-si to make sure they provide the exact match.
