Like Paul said, Homies or Lowes carries some.. I had some in my stock trailer... McMaster Carr also carries a nice assortment...

Paul will have what you need , I'm sure..
From McMaster Carr:
Aluminum key way stock P/N 99108A105 .. 5/16 X 5/16 X 12"... $27.50
Carbon Steel key way stock P/N 98830A250 .. 5/16 X 5/16 X 12" ..$2.00
Carbon Steel key way stock P/N 98830A879 .. 5/16 X 5/16 X 36" .. $ 6.00

5/16 round should fit the 5/16 square motor coupling as is. Maybe file a flt to accept the set screw.
