Hi Eric

> question: I don't have the original m6 base plate.
> 1) Where is the best place to find a base plate? (other than ebay)
<http://www.leicamarket.com>
:-)

> 2) will pre m6 base plates work?
Compatible baseplates:
Pre-M6 - Leica M4, M4-2, M4P
Post M6 - Leica M6TTL (obviously), M7, MP, MP3 etc

> 3) what is a typical price for this part?
 From about US $60 for a used beater in black chrome to US $ 220 for  
a new part from Leica (may be slightly different depending on world  
location)
As used parts, chrome ones (as black paint ones) tend to be a tad  
more expensive than black chrome and way cheaper than black paint ones.

cheers,
