As I do not have this tool (ya, I know? Really?) and can find no good images in
a search of the web (the ONLY one I could find showing the stop is a catalog
cut),I can't make a firm statement, but can certainly take a look at good pics
to  see what it would take to make. If you can take a few with the part on good
graph paper (10mm grid with 1mm fine lines is ideal) in several orientations, I
can make a guess of what it might take to duplicate, but good dimensions, as
John said, will be needed eventually. Caliper (vernier, dial, or one of them new
fangled jobbers) and radius gauges, for a start, but good pictures will be a
good start..

If you are looking to utility rather than maximal historical accuracy, it is a
lot easier and less expensive. I should guess that the original part was a
machined casting (cast iron)? The part looks ripe to be a steel stamping by the
1960's.
