I suspect not but could you use a use gears from different manufacturers to make up a box? I am short of a 1st motion shaft for my challenge spec gearbox.

The pitch of the teeth varies between manafacturers i believe, so i'd say it's a no no.

I suspect everyone has copied everyone before.
Stick a roller between the flanks, measure the diameter over the pins, and compare them this way. If they are almost identical, they can likelly be used.

Does anybody happen to know what gears are interchangeable (similar pin distance) with the Challenge sets?

Challenge sets are a diffferent matter entirely - these are a different headset ratio, so the first motion and laygear will be different for sure. MS 1 / 2 / 3 'could' be the same however?
