Help Please - Wheel Lock Removal Solution- Lost Tool

OK, help please. This wheel lock system is very unique, company is apparentlyout of business, and of course I managed to lose the combo tool to remove. The outer nut is alloy identical to OE lug nuts. But is essentially 2 pieces where the outside is a jam nut, the base has odd pattern drilled holes that accept a nut-like sleeve with matching pattern studs.

You remove the OE look out nut, then take the tool which same outside mm, but instead of threads on inside it is smooth bore that floats/ rotates on the stud. At the bottom, there is solid steel pins @1/8" diameter that engages the female holes in the actual nut that secures the wheel.

I've tried to spin the base nut off with a punch/ hammer but no go, too much torque to do that. So it looks like I need to have the tool piece machined. See pics below, also ideas please. FYI I have searched the internet all the way to the end. No dice on this type of locking nut.
