Re: a few extra opinions before the hacksaw hits NOS parts...
Basically the plate where the pin starts is the red line. and although it's difficult to see from the pic, when I line them up, the new one would have to be cut at the line(blue arrow) that is formed into the pin, almost as if it was scored for this purpose. cutting it there would make them almost the exact size.
