If it's the Delta-Six fixture with "crystalline" lens, it should be a GE
790, 14v 25w halogen lamp with G4 bipin base.  The Delta-Six label inside
the fixture should say so.

Radio Shack p/n 272-1177 20w bulb should be a good stand-in, and it only
costs $2.

For sources for the real one, do a web search on 790 lamp -- should turn up
some.
