I'm attempting to find modern replacements for AN7 or AC45 plugs.

I read that Champion J8C is possibly an equivalent and so is NGK CS3. Is this true, and what have others used successfully?

If the plug is a match for depth (length), diameter, and thread is there a risk of using an equivalent plug?

The NGK equivalent for an AC45 is a B6S non resistor, if you want a resistor plug use a BR6S.
 Back in the 70s I quit using Champion plugs for anything. In a box of 10 you could be sure 2 were bad, it was up to you to find those 2.
If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere.
Real pullers don't have speed limits.

Autolites or NGK's are usually the strong picks for AC Tractors. Autolite 295's are a warmer plug. The other Autolite choice that can be used is the 303. These are a little colder plug. Worn engines or engines that have some time on them where oil control may be a little bit of a problem, the 295's work great. The NGK B6S work great also. The choice is yours...

Your WC should have a magneto unless it's been replaced with a distributor.  Magnetos don't like resistor plugs or carbon core wires!
