Yes, I remember the canning you received about using the chicken grill motor. I have used a geared hobby motor. Just by chance the shaft is 5mm with a flat on it that fits one of the drive gears from a superfluous paper feed guide on the fuser unit. When I clean up the unit cosmetically I will post some photos etc. In the meantime details of the motor can be found here:

I am sure these motors can be found just about everywhere.
