The 10-series Macs (including that PM805) are all D276/D176/MXT mount.  D176 bars are still available from Oregon up to 28".  Left coast supply carries them as of today.  Baileys still carries them up to 24" last I saw.  Tons of NOS and new D276, D176, and MXT mount bars on eBay and elsewhere too.

"if a Mac mount isn't available" won't be an issue with these saws for years to come.  I can understand wanting to modify a bar (large Husky, etc) that you already have to save $ of course.  A K041 mount bar can often used on a 10-series Mac.  Sometimes the adjuster/oiler holes (which are one in the same) need to be opened a scosh.

You can also use a D096/D196/UXL XL-series Homelite mount (or a D007 Pioneer/Partner/PoulanPro mount) on a 10-series saw with stud spacers ('S' type or ones made from 3/8" hardware store extension springs) if it has oil passages from the adjuster holes to the groove.  UXL usually does (as does most D007 bars).  D096 sometimes does.  Takes a few minutes with a Dremel if the passages aren't already there....

That bar in the PM805 pics above is a Windsor MXT mount (and uses the old 3-rivet style tip).  There are tons of those on eBay right now.  Jon1212 probably still has some too.
