I have seen an e-brake disc that can be bolted to the pinion and it has a small caliper that bolts to the top of the disc.

This is the company that makes a pinion mounted emergency(parking!!) brake. I had one on a 'bucket several years ago plus started out with one on my '31 before I decided on rear discs. They satisfy the 'letter of the law' but I have to say - there are better choices - like the OEM arrangement. These really don't do a very good job of holding.

Propshaft handbrake is very easy to make yourself, all you need is a disc to bolt on pinion yoke and a cable operated caliper, downside is they don't work that well.
