I'm looking to find a chart of nuclides, their potential fusion products and measured energy levels, in a similar vein as NuDat 3, but for fusion.

It doesn't need to be cleanly formatted like NuDat, but a robust list of fusion outcomes would be incredibly useful.

I would still send you to the NNDC databases, just a different one than you’ve found so far. Probably you want EXFOR, which contains reaction data. So if you wanted to search for the D-T fusion process,

$$ \rm ^3H(^2H,n)^4He $$

you could put H-3 as the target and d,* as the reaction for a list of all the things that deuterons can do on tritium. For fusion among heavier nuclei, there is a list of “ion-induced reactions” which have data available.
