Am going to LA in a few weeks; thought I'd pick up an Omega 645 neg carrier for my C760-headed B66XL enlarger.

They are out of stock on this item, and have been for a while. There is a note to call the store and ask. (will do on Monday) Nothing in EBay. Nothing googled, except "not a regularly stocked item".

Anybody know about Omega parts? Crossing fingers that they still are making these things...

Pick up a 6x6 and mask it to 6x4.5, theres plenty of them around and cheap. The alternative is to make one from matboard.

I use 6x6 without any kind of mask to print 645.... never had any issues.

I'd contact KHB in Mississauga and ask them:

Look on eBay. There are tons of Omega neg carriers and other parts all the time.

Check out Columbus Camera Group. They don't list much on their web site or eBay but they have a large room full of enlargers and parts.
