Mark,

Yes, Mafac made and sold braze-ons for their centerpulls. I have a Mafac catalog (reprint from Chuck Schmidt) which has a page listing the item numbers for the braze ons for each of the various centerpulls and also a diagram showing the mounting dimensions. I've been informed that there is a Japanese brand that will work but am unsure of the brand and therefore at an even greater loss of finding a set of them.
