The enclosed page is from the website I sent you a PM about. It was taken from a 1951 Atlas Catalog that shows your drill press. The very last line of the page should give you the information you need.

All Daytons, or most of them, are now chinese made and Grizzly I hear is in the process of swithing over anything below 1hp to China so if you're getting a replacement it's something to keep in mind. As with most Chinese electric motors in the last 5 years the windings are less than satisfactory which results in a short life if you're working it hard or near it's duty cycle.

Ah the good old days of replacing the cap and having an american made brute last a lifetime are now all but gone...

Just call Grainger and tell them what you need, usually have it in stock.
