I seen a post on here from 2011 that is exactly what I am looking for...however the website that was linked is no longer up. I am looking for a replacement blower motor for my Hutch Rebel insert. I have attached a picture of the insert as well as the original installation manual that shows the model. The motor is 1/8hp 1050rpm with 3/8 shaft. Diameter is 5in. It is an enclosed motor. I can take a picture of the motor itself as well.
I have been looking online and see several that look the same but I thought it would be better to ask someone that actually knows a bit about these things. The insert is my grandmother's and she heats her entire house with it. My grandpa and my dad both passed away within the last 6 years so I have become the one that helps with these kind of things. Im usually pretty good with these things, but this is something I don't know much about.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! hutch_rebel_front_view_insert.jpg

if you have no luck see if there is a electric motor shop around you and bring it to him he'll set you up with something.

I can only find 1/2 shaft...which will work with a little modification but none of them are fully enclosed. It will need to be fully enclosed from my understanding.

I live in a very small town and don't think there is a motor shop like that anywhere nearby.
