Great news! I just found a used R151F sitting in a disabled 2007 HZJ78 located in Haiti that is ready for them to take. Thanks Tapage for putting me in touch with Mr. Finlay. Seems like a great, cut through the bull****, get-it-done, individual.
I performed a VIN search on ToyoDIY.com, here is what I found out:
According to the VIN that the truck is a 02/2003 model running an R151F mated to the 1HZ.

I followed the links through this website to the transmission parts page and found that the transmission model is indeed an R151F. I performed a subsequent search on a 2007 HZJ78 and confirmed that the transmission from the 2007 donor vehicle will work since this model applies to all HZJ78 Land Cruisers from 08/1999 forward.
Great thanks to everyone on this board who provided feedback and help. It's not a done deal yet, but you guys on MUD have come through again to help piece together the puzzle so we know which direction we need to go.
My colleague is going to Haiti next week and will be negotiating the purchase of the transmission (and possibly the entire truck). I've asked him to take some pics that I can share back here on the forum.
