Hi Chris Thanks for the info. This helps a lot. I have one of the newer stereo kits that I use a MKH60/40 and MKH30 in mid side configuration. Can I use this with other parts, if so which ones?

In the bad old days I think some clips were made to allow the enormously fat body of a ST350/450 to be slung inside the "stereo" (150mm) windshield on sturdy o-rings. Very few Soundfields were used in that way and I don't think more than a handful of rigs were sold. With the advent of of "lyre" mounts it has been entirely uneconomical to tool up for old-style windshield versions that would sell less than 100 in their lifetime. But the USM mount, that was designed for chunky, side-address studio mics, can support the Soundfields very well. The only down side is that the these are meant for use on stands, and have no method of fixing a windshield to them. I suspect that is why you haven't been getting sensible answers from the distributors, who are somewhat foggy about such rare microphones. If you have an old stereo windshield you might be able to perform a little butchery to make a USM fit - it isn't impossible. But Rycote wouldn't recommend that sort of one-off work officially. Rycote will always provide alternative lyres if you are unsure what version you need - they are pretty good that way.
