You can use any caddy (or sled) for Lombard or Pismo, they're all the
same. I've found the cheapest way to acquire one is to 'eBuy' a
non-functional Lombard CD drive and pull its sled. I paid ~~$20 for the
most recent one I picked up.
Here on my page on EBMs some more infos and pics:

And re: your question whether a Pismo will boot with no HD and no PRAM .
. . it needs neither to boot. Go ahead and plug it in and see if it
works! THe M4402 is an appropriate PS BTW, it's the same 45W as the
original PS.
