4 core radiator retainers

Well after some investigation I have found that the radiator that was in my truck appears to be from a 70ish Chevelle. Last week I ordered a new 3 core radiator which was marked for a C10, but after further research it too was for a Chevelle. My problem is with the retainers that bolt to the core support. The tank on the drivers side will accept the standard 3 core mount. The tank on the passenger side is nearly 1" wider and the previous owner made cuts in the 3 core mount to make it fit also pictured below. I'm asking someone to measure the rubber mount area for me and possibly snap a picture to see if I can order a 4 core retainer for the passenger side.

Thanks!

Stock retainers, the bottom one has the cuts


Old radiator, you can see the difference in end tank thickness


Measured the thickness of the driver side tank on the new radiator


And the thickness on the passenger side
