Sounds like this might fill the bill - http://www.tripodhead.com/products/sidekick-main.cfm - the Sidekick, comes with a quick release, you'll need to pop an additional $50 to 75 for a QR plate for the lens. Its made to fit an existing ball head.
The WH100 & WH101 are the same with the addition of a quick release added to one accounting for the extra cost. Again, you'll need a plate to mount your lens.
