I'm wondering is anyone has a split hood they could measure the drain hole dimensions for me? I need to fabricate this brace from a later model and these holes need to be replicated.

I'd like measurements on the distance form the seam and also the diameter of the hole itself.

Thank you! Jim

Jim had asked me via e-mail and I took pics of my '51 Std. hood. I'll post here as well in case someone else comes looking...
