I've been a locksmith since 1998. I did automotive residential & commercial work from 1998 to 2008. From 2008 to 2018, I did some residential, but mostly commercial work. I have been project managing & estimating since 2018. I used to locksmith in the Chicago area, now the Austin area.
Sounds like a barrel “skeleton” key. You could either have a locksmith come out and make a key, or bring that lock into a locksmith shop to get a key made. Another option is ordering a ring of “tryout keys” like one listed on this site. I’m sure you could find something else, this is what just came up in a quick google search. https://www.houseofantiquehardware.com/barrel-clock-key

Unfortunately I don’t work on automotive anymore and haven’t in 11 years. If your key has a chip in it, you may have bought the wrong ignition or may need to get it programmed by a locksmith. When you start dealing with ignition security systems, DIY ignition swaps aren’t as simple as they used to be. Best way to find out is have a locksmith come out, or call a locksmith and give him the year make & model and he should be able to tell you if it had a chip in it. Some years, SOME vehicles came with a chip, & some didn’t. Makes our job frustrating not knowing what we’re walking into, but more so for the customer.

Sorry I’ve never heard of such a thing. Nothing comes up in a google search either.

Do you get annoyed when people use Groupons?
Depends on how old your Weslock is. The older Weslock you could use a Kwikset key blank, but they had their own keyway. They have revamped their products as the company has been bought and sold over the years, and today you can get Weslock in both a Schlage and a Kwikset keyway.
