Looking for a stock for a Lee Speed rifle

The first thing you have to determine is whether the rifle is a Lee Speed modified MkI or MkII MLM or a later model. You can start by the type of magazine you have. If it's a MKI MLM it will have an 8 round, straight stack magazine. If it's a MkII it will have a slightly shorter but wider, double stack 10 round magazine or if a later No1 model it may also have a double stack five round magazine. All sorts of variations were available for a price as I've recently found out.
Finding a purpose built commercial stock for your rifle will take a bit of digging and maybe even a few years of effort, or you just might get lucky and find what you're looking for in the parts piles/bins at a gun show.
I am reading this as you need a fore stock????

Theres plenty of places with vintage stocks. But Im afraid none of them will have that stock. You could ask Roy at http://wilkinsonfscollection.com/wilkinsonfscollection.com/Home.html
I'm guessing your only route will be to have one made.

I gave up trying to find original replacement stocks, so I am learning how to make them for my projects.
There is a chap here in Canada who is gearing up for making various reproduction stocks on CNC equipment.
The hobby of restoring old rifles needs one to have time and patience. You will eventually find what you need.

It would not be hard to make the stock, but to find the hardware for it.
