Raleigh house brand crankset

I'm wondering if anyone knows if the house brand Raleigh crank that comes on a lot of their models (mine's a Tamland) is compatible with a Shimano non drive side crank arm. I'm looking at getting a Stages power meter and I'm thinking it may work to just put it on the Raleigh drive side crank arm since they both seem to use the Hollowtech standard.

I can't find any example online of what the crank looks like, but I'd be surprised if it were Shimano compatible.

What does the non-drive side arm look like, can you post a picture?

EDIT: OK I found an example of one online. From a first look it does appear to be very similar to a Hollowtech crank in it's design. Sadly that's no guarantee that you can just slide on a Shimano crank arm though.

I've taken it apart before and everything about the crank and the bb scream Hollowtech II.
I may just have to be the guinea pig. I'll take off the wife's shimano nds arm and try it tonight. I won't be able to stop thinking about it till I know

Almost certainly not. Most "OEM" level cranks are made by FSA. Using the Shimano spindle design would be a huge patent infringement.

Ding ding ding. I just took it apart and the spindle splines are completely different.

my stuntman came with a Sammox crank. I think it's also on my son's merit 3.
