I personally have used Singer, EIKI, and Bausch & Lomb lens all of which work well. Bell & Howell make a heavy anamorphic lens, but the focus is always soft, bad design on their part. I think your model projector uses the large barrel B&H lenses so a "C" or "D" size should do fine.
For the Singer and EIKI lenses, I had Omer Whayne make adapters that screw onto the end of the prime lens then screw the anamorphic lens onto that. The Bausch and Lomb lens is one complete lens with 2" prime lens that I used an adapter sleeve to hold the lens.
If you need an adapter ring or sleeve, here is Omer's contact info. Just substitute the (AT) for @ and (DOT) for . in the email address. If you want his phone number send a PM.

I do have a Bausch & Lomb lens for $65.00 including postage if you are interested. The fit without sleeve in the small barrel B&H projectors. Here is a link to one on ebay for $25.00 with a minor defect. With some care, it sounds like it could be fixed.
