from what I can gather, the HD20 will not work on a stock, standard 128k mac?

I can't find any contradicting evidence.
The minimum requirements seem to be 64k ROMs and 512KB of RAM, but 128k ROMs are better.

the profile hard drive was never used on the 128k? or the 512k for that matter

Correct. It required a disk controller card.

Has anyone done a CF type card project for the 128k?

I don't believe so.

What other external hard drive options existed for the 128k, in standard 64k ROM form?

This is just a list of drives that I found; you will have to research them further yourself:

ProApp20 Hard drive

Tecmar 10mb Hard Drive

Hyperdrive 2000 info from GCC

MacBottom -- very short review

Hyperdrive

SCSI HD20 Rumor

Paradise MAC-10

The new Apple Hard Disc - from 1985, an interesting read today

Hope this helps answer your questions.
