I see Paul hasn't got back to you yet.  There is some phosphor bronze on EBay of the correct grade, it seems to come in 13 " lengths.  CC481K is the European equivalent of PB1.  An EBay search for "phosphor bronze PB1" or "phosphor bronze CC481K" should bring up the correct material.  Not cheap.  I looked at machining a Velocette gearbox bush to fit, unfortunately the internal diameter is to big for a Silk gearbox,  the external diameter could be turned down.

Hope this helps.
