It looks like a guy might be able to get new chain from china but seems risky.

It appears to be made of unobtanium, as I have not seen anyone mention a successful source for anything new...

Some Chain for IH machines is a close match - but that is also obsolete in new .
Berco no longer makes chain it that pitch. It seems one can get it from China in Australia but no direct import into the US . So how much is made or stocked in AU to export beyond there of Chinese chain - a real question .
If one could find a swap by replacing sprocket ring to match new pitch and also fit idlers might be a option but for one machine probably not doable .

I don't remember the details but Mike Newman over at Red Power construction thread has mentioned checking what is available in excavator chains
