The part number I used when I ordered the external cable a few years ago
is 32G4143. I don't know if that's "current", though.

I experimented with the Dock 1 SCSI system and Linux a while back. I got
it to work with CD-ROM and a hard disk, but it's very slow. I can probably
dig up the details of what I had to do to get it to work if anyone is
interested.

Well, you'd think so, but no, it's not. The part number I have for the
"internal SCSI installation kit" is 66G3538; again, this may not be
current.
