Replacing Maxon motor in a Teres Verus


Anyone know if this is a direct drop-in replacement for the Maxon motor in a Teres Verus?

EC-max 30 Ø30 mm, brushless, 40 Watt, with Hall sensors

Part number 272770

128x128nrenter
His brother Bryce made the Terus bearing, his machine shop Brady Manufacturing looks to be run by a Kendall Brady, son perhaps? Maybe try him? http://www.bradymfg.net/
I reached out to Chris, but thought I’d take it out to the hive mind. Part number looks the same, but “simple” part swaps like this never end up as simple as it seems. 
Did yours die? I would hate to be without mine. Doubt I will ever be able to find anything better than my table. Certainly not that I could ever afford!
It’s started to make a clicking / grinding noise. I pulled the motor out of the housing, and confirmed it is the motor. Just want to confirm there’s nothing special / custom about the motor. 

BTW, I’ve marveled at your table for years. I have a solid acrylic platter w/ a Cocobolo base. I’d love to find a lead-loaded platter. 
Chris says the bearings may just need cleaning and lube, but will let me know if the motor actually needs to be replaced. I’m going to ship it back to him for a once-over. I’ll report back if he finds anything more serious / interesting.
