Frame builder is your best bet. You can imagine there can be many variants due to tubing diameter, angles etc and the adapter needs to be fairly close fitting.
Due to thicknes of tube wall you'd need a tig; a mig woould likely blow a hole in the tube. Plus the positioning needs to be reasonably precise within 0.5 mm or better.

The rear one is stainless and relieved to save a bit of weight :
Very nicely done to:
The front is solid Ti to suit the forks :

Re:
Make your own for the rear , it's just a piece of steel plate shapes with 2 holes in it.
Braze it on and hey presto , bear in mind your frame will need painting afterwards though , if in doubt use someone like Bob Jackson or Ellis Briggs (or a local to you framebuilder ) to put one on for you , will probably cost about £60 > £70 .
