PDP-8/M power supply questions

I've managed to find out a little more about the two missing components
on my PDP-8/Ms power supply and alas they look most vital!

One is a DEC 1110714 bridge rectifier and the other is a MJ900
transistor. I think I've sourced the MJ900 but can't find anywhere
stocking the 1110714.

Does anyone know an alternative non-DEC part number for the rectifier?

Many thanks,
Toby
