It sounds like you're looking for the "banjo". Try looking for a Delta parts/repair location in your area at:
formatting link
can also order parts through their web site (now Black & Decker/DeWalt).
They are for sale on Ebay almost every day. But don't go there until I get the parts I need! (Just kidding, I just got most of the things I wanted--- almost exactly what you are searching for. Just search for: delta lathe They don't go cheap, but I don't know what they cost new, either.

Quick question. Are you looking for this part because you dont' have one, or because the one you have is broken? I am asking because I thought I might have to buy a new banjo for a while because the locking screw for the tool rest pulled right out of the banjo. But a helicoil fixed it perfectly. Enough of the metal pulled out so I didn't even have to re-drill the hole. The helicoil tap worked just fine.
