Just my opinion (Again) !
I also recognize those hands cutting them off

Hi Stew, Valid points, what I have found with the bottom castings is that after 70 odd years they can vary in inside diameter vastly, once cleaned up, grit blasted etc, if you were to have the ends produced and sent to you as per original spec they may well rattle around in there, so its up to the individual to finish the ends to suit there casting. I think you can still fit a nut on the original studs?, these are thicker as I have seen a lot of warped flanges, but only by 5mm.
