[Healeys] Door strike plate dimensions wanted

It appears the tapped plate and packing plate for the door strikers has 
been missing since an earlier P.O. restoration. If anyone has these 
items handy and could give me overall dimensions/materials so that I can 
make up a set, would be appreciated (moss numbers 021-347 and 021-349 
for a BJ7-8).  Yes, I could just buy these but with a CNC mill and other 
tools it would be a quick set of parts to make and I'd have more beer 
money :)

I understand the tapped plate must be steel and tapped for the door 
striker screws. Unsure if the packing plate is steel or aluminum. I'm 
guessing this goes inside the rear fender area between the shut face and 
the tapped plate although I found a 1/8" thick aluminum plate stuck 
behind the aluminum shut face finisher .. could this be it?

Cheers,
John
