Hi Trev
It sounds to me like we need to learn how to wind our own motors, as the cost I have been quoted are astronomical also.
Have you given any thought to making a three phase motor for EV's as the permag one is relatively simple, with your skills as a foundry to make the smaller parts, and a piece of tube machined to hold magnets,
With your contacts for magnets it may be possible to get some made at a reasonable price.
All the best
