It's a 2"x3" enlarger. Or in metric it handles 6x9. If you want new they
should still be stocked. If you want used Ebay I guess.

Thats the current model of yours I think. Ask Beseler if the current
carriers fit I think they do.

35mm, 3X4.5, 6X6, 6X7 and supposedly 6X9 but I never was able
to eliminate some obstruction to the path when enlarging 6X9.

Hmm, my 23C (not C II) does 6x9 just fine. Is there a big difference between
these models?

It's possible. I have the 23CII dichro. It worked well for 35
and 6X4.5 but for larger negs I went to the Omega D5.
