I've got Campy drum brakes front and rear on my early 60's Roma tandem. You won't see them in any catalog. The rear hub has a 3 speed Regina freewheel mounted but it could have easily used a single cog on a moped.
I assumed they were made for the moped industry.
I'd heard stories of the Hjertsbergs's having a moped with a Campy drum brake in their collection at Wheelsmith (RIP). Any Bay Area members able to confirm that or determine where that cache ended up?
