Hi Dave,

You need part # 321492-3 template guide adapter which allows the use of
standard universal guides such as Porter Cables among others, it is $16.95 +
2.95 Shipping & Handling.

You might also check with Woodcraft or somebody who carries Leigh dovetail
jigs. I *think* it is Leigh who makes their own version of Makita's template
adapter, and theirs might be cheaper.
