I would like to buy or borrow a test bar, either with just centers, or MT3. If anyone has one for sale or one I can borrow, I wil be grateful. I will only use it for measuring and not for cutting.

I usually just use some pieces of hardened and ground shafting. You have to check them for straightness, but if they are good, they make very nice tools for checking lathe alignment, which sounds like what you are looking for. You can even put them in a 3-jaw chuck. Then you can check the chuck and how it is mounted for accuracy at the same time.
