If you’re not wanting an OE bar I saw several decent options on eBay, just do a search for “homelite xl 923 bar chain”

The gauge shouldn’t be a concern if you are buying the bar and chain. You will probably want to replace the drive sprocket in any case, which you would want to match with the pitch of your chain.
What gauge and pitch are you wanting/have?

.050" gauge and 3/8" pitch.

I’d pry buy this one if it was me as I am fond of Oregon products, not a bad deal either, get them while you can as they have discontinued the mount www.ebay.com/itm/123927732726Otherwise this will save a few bucks, I’ve bought from the seller before and had good luck. www.ebay.com/itm/180732861313

Here's one.
Here's another
This is the bar I put on my 923.
There's no way this bar fits on a C series saw,the bar mount pattern needs to be an F014 mount to fit a C series & this bar is a D096.

yes the bar has to be either a D196 or a D096 i think not sure if these are.

The one I put on my saw is a D096.If you look through the whole description you'll see it is.The other 2 I'm not sure about,you'd have to research them.
