If anyone has a stock Oval rear spring plate lying around I could really do with a few measurements...

What type of measurement? I have a 62 spring plate laying around. The only difference is how the torsion bar connects.

Just this if you can...ignore my squiggled line - I basically need the exact measurement between the front edge of the bolt hole and the torsion bar cover
