Want to Buy Homelite and others Questions

[labans]

Since I am now becoming addicted to older chainsaws and rebuilding them I am finding some information hard to come by, not to mention some parts!
First off, can someone tell me how to find the build-specs for any given engine? Specifically things like piston and wrist-pin measurements, bore size and etc.??? In the current case I need to know the specs for a Homelite Bandit 33cc piston and wrist-pin setup.
Second off, I cannot find one single supplier that shows a piston for the Bandit---anyone know how/where I can find one?
Just finished rebuilding my 40 year old Partner S55 and was able to buy a new piston/ring and many other parts, but not for the Bandit.
Anyone help?
Thanks in advance
ps Homelite 10901 with piston/pin #UP06971A there must other brands that have the exact same motor, but I cannot find a cross-reference chart

That should be the same basic saw as the xl. They built about a million of them

Thanks Bill
One difference I see is that the XL models all have two rings and the Bandit only has one. Which leads me to think that the piston dimensions must be different; but that is just a guess
