I found Power_Computing/SCSI_Manager_Update_1.2.img.bin at
http://www.info.apple.com/support/oldersoftwarelist.html#system
It is the last item on the web page.
I also found these items in the middle of the same web page under System
Software Downloads. One of them should be the required one. Try reading the
associated text files.

I don't know where I originally found these updates but I hope this gets you
started. My experience is that without them you don't stand much of a chance
getting your new drive to work.
