I've got this 42" Power Match plus bar I picked up second hand sometime in the past, can't find the one chain I had for it and can't find anything on it from web searches. Anybody happen to know the drive link count?

It is a 3/8.

I don't wanna say it's not 135 but I had looked at getting some loops at one point and could only find one seller that had any because, and this is why I'm asking and what stuck in my memory, it was a funny number and different from what was readily available. I should have bought em, there were only 3 and they were on clearance.

I got the number straight from Oregon`s older catalogue, had same bar numbers as your bar has on it. No other source I know of for older Oregon stuff.
 
Well I managed to "find" the chain that comes with it (buddy borrowed B&C but didn't return the C till yesterday) and counted the links, I got 136. Like I said though it came second hand.
It worked fine the couple times I used it but now I'm wondering, how much of a difference does one link make? 135DL loops are more available so @pioneerguy600 I appreciate the info and making things a little easier
