I suggest you index the elements on the value of the attribute:
<xsl:key name="thingsearch" match="thing" use="@name"/>

(You can do it your way, but I find this way less confusing.)

Then you can access the information you want as
select="key('thingsearch', @source)/@sys-id"

If you index the attributes rather than the elements, the equivalent would
be
select="key('thingsearch', @source)/../@sys-id"
