I cannot say with absolute certainty, but I think that the cams from any of the twins, such as Constellation, Super Meteor, Interceptor,  should fit.

check with Hitchcocks.
They probably have the pushrods too.

Build up with weld & regrind? Is that still an option, or is it a "Jay Leno Grade" repair beyond the scope of the everyman?

I'd follow Ace' advice and check with Hitch's they are a goldmine of info, and have always helped me out with technical questions.
And, perhaps the question of cam interchangeability would be answered in comparing part numbers in the parts books ?
