need an odd AC cord

It is really a standard cord used on many devices. I have seen them
in Electronics Parts Outlet stores in Houston and feel sure that, if
you have a good electronics parts store near they probably stock them.

Anyone know what kind of AC cord this takes?

If you don't need the ground connection, you may be able to persuade the
normal 'Double-D' connector to fit. I did this when I lost the cord for
a Compaq laptop power supply. However, you will need to take a hacksaw,
and carefully cut a slot in the plastic between the two receptacles of
the Double-D - just enough to allow them to separate slightly (as the
pins of 'odd AC cord' are spaced slightly wider), and to clear the bit
of webbing (or whatever you like to call it) between the pins.
