I believe the ball you are looking for is the Reese part # RP19311. This ball fits the Ford factory rail kits and the Reese Elite series gooseneck hitch/fifth wheel rail kits that actually ended up becoming the Ford factory rail kits. Since you have puck setup you have the Elite rail kit and the ball you'd need would be the # RP19311. I attached a picture of this hitch ball next to the socket it fits for you to check out and compare to what you have if you are unsure.
