This setup looks like a good deal….

Looks like the same one from Fasttech I use in D-cell Maglites. Works nice, not very throw-y. Emitter hole is way too small for SST-90, it can be opened up though.

This one is much deeper, but doesn't accept the screw-in pill like the OP one does.

Looks like brass?

It’s brass, for sure. That reflector works well in D and C cell mags with ust a little grinding on the light head and/or the reflector. I chose the light head so I didn’t get dust all over the reflector.
I used a 52mm glass lens fro DX, and it fit right in the Mag. I forget which one exactly though. Came in a 5-pack.
You might get the SST-90 in there as-is, but I’d at least be prepared to widen the hole a little bit.

That reflector is very similar one of the two I use for "D" Maglites. I get them from CNQG and they were not OP finish. They work with an XM-L and you would have to open it way up to fit an SST-90. With that reflector, it would be a floodlight.

The deeper reflector from CNQG would give a little better hot spot for throwing.

Both will work in a Maglite with some massaging.

I chose to cut the reflector and leave the Mag head uncut, so it could be swapped into any other Mag with no more work. Some pics here: https://budgetlightforum.com/t/-/17371
