I found the tiny S-hook for my 71 tension rod. I've seen at least two different rods, and I think you've mentioned that as well.

Good to know about the wire Doc.

On topic of adjusters, I found some variances in the height of the adjuster plates. Pretty sure it was height Vs thickness Couldn't tell you why, years or whatever. A grinder works.
