The verse quoted here
harer nāma harer nāma harer nāmaiva kevalam kalau nāsty eva nāsty eva nāsty eva gatir anyathā
In this Age of Kali there is no other means, no other means, no other means for self-realization than chanting the holy name, chanting the holy name, chanting the holy name of Lord Hari.
It belongs to Brhan-Naradiya Purana 38.126 as per this. Is Brhan-Naradiya same as Narada purana? But I could not find the verse there in the 38th chapter.
What is the exact source of the verse?
Well, as you provided link that the verse belongs to Chaitanya Charitamtrita Adi Lila 17.21, actually it occurs first in CC-Adi-Lila 7.76 before 17.21.
Talking about Purana, yes, Naradiya Purana refers to Narada Purana. As pointed out in the question the verse is not found in the 38th chapter of Narada Purana. The closet verse (with just a slight variation) I found from Narada Purana is:
हरेर्नामैव नामैव नामैव मम जीवनम् ।
कलौ नास्त्येव नास्त्येव गतिरन्यथा ।।
IAST:
harernāmaiva nāmaiva nāmaiva mama jīvanam ।
kalau nāstyeva nāstyeva gatiranyathā ।।
It's located as 115th verse of 41th Adhyaya of Narada Purana Purvardha (Purva Bhaga) i.e 41.115.
