Is that the common "octal" plug? They're available as is the
"Loctal", which is what I've heard people call the 11 pin octal
plug.

No, it's a 9-pin plug with slightly smaller pins than the octal. Those
used
to be very common for audio transformers, and Amphenol made them. I bet
that the guys making the old Amphenol octal plugs might still make them,
even. It's worth checking the Newark catalogue.

No its an 8-pin octal and was also still used for plug-in relays.
Here is their catalog (look at Section 4 for digrams and options for 86
series plugs and sockets)
