The existing pickup should be ok.
If you can't find an original and don't want to use the existing one then a Carey Nordstrand would be the go. It has alnico magnets (like Music Man) and is based on a 1978 Pre-EB pickup. I bought one as a spare. I tried it with my 1989 Bass and it was fine.
Here's the link:

Of course, you'd need the one at the top (MM4.2)
