Myastroshop.com.au used to retail an adapter that fitted a malincam/GStar or similar to the polar scope of the EQ6 and maybe others. Not sure if it is still available.

But, with a good compass (with mag. deviation offset) and a good inclinometer, is it even necessary? using the tools just mentioned, I always get to within a couple of minutes of the pole, and then adjust with an iterative alignment or a drift alignment. Takes maybe 30 minutes all up to get to within a few seconds of the pole.
