With a pattern to copy, that type of puller wouldn't be difficult to duplicate. The end with the expanding fingers would need to be case hardened to prevent the pulling lip from getting damaged, but that's a pretty simple operation with a torch and some Kasenit powder. The rest of the puller could stay flexible since it's held into place with the sliding sleeve. A slide hammer or a tapered jackscrew bearing against the end of the driveshaft could be used to do the actual pulling.
