Check with Bob Colosi Custom guitar saddles.
He’s done just about every kind of guitar saddle duplication. if you don’t have one he can replicate he might have the measurements on file.

Bob is on my list of people if I don’t find what I need here. Amazon and Reverb too.

+1 for Bob Colosi.
You can even buy pre-shaped/ compensated.

I have a thing for long through saddles and decided to try and make some and Bob sold me some blanks, and even tossed in a couple practice pieces.
Last week I’m in a shop and see a tiny saddle and high action and too much relief in the neck. I was worried it needed a reset but the shop owner pulled out a truss rod and started cranking it, and cranking it… it was totally backed out (luckily the previous owner kept receipts and I now know where not to bring it.)
Once the relief was corrected, the saddle was way too low.
But! I know how to make one and have a blank! I took that guitar home and it sings, and I believe I also made the best saddle I’ve ever done.
Anyway…
Bob is great.

Breedlove sells saddles directly. That seems your easiest bet.
