There are variations in the size of the 2 gallon can, especially between Australian manufacturers and again between Australian cans and the Canadian, as I think Euan is suggesting.

I published an article in Army Motors several years back which had a table of size variations. I think KVE might have republished it more recently? (Richard??....).

I don't remember the details of the sizes, but certainly worth looking for a foreign (CDN) can. The one you show is almost certainly an Aust made can - very basic folded handle, cast metal cap (probably not brass) with no provision for a chain keeper, top and bottom pressings the same three shallow depressions, etc etc.
