As Mark mentions, the Bach 18 is a bowl-shaped mouthpiece with a slightly larger diameter and a bit less depth than your Schilke 67, which is what you asked for.

In the Doug Elliott line, a 2n128 rim will have a rim shape something like yours in that it is less rounded than a Bach and not nearly as sharp as a Conn Helleberg, and still a bit bigger in diameter compared with your Schilke. A P cup is more bowl-shaped and a bit shallower than yours. Get whatever shank you like; maybe a 4 or a 5 would be similar to the Schilke.
