Probably from a Jetta or Scirocco
Ah, I just saw your other post regarding the part numbers. The disk brake swap most likely used parts from a Jetta, or the entire rear axle could have been swapped for one from a Scirocco. I start there, rather than revert to drums.

Do you have junkyards there? That would be your best bet. The hub is easy to get off, as you probably figured out. While you're at it, you could get the front hubs to swap as well, though you'll need a press and a new bearing for each side (and of course get the rotors or drill your old ones). If I can ever get someone to sell me a 4x108 front hub I'd even send you my 4x100 pair.
Did you measure the bolt spacing of the hubs? Just so we know we're on the right track...

The 4000 and the VW A1 do not share the "entire" rear axle. Please be carefull when making such statements. You may end up costing someone a lot of time and $ if they believe that. Please make sure you have accurate information when posting...
