Thought I'd close this out by showing my (hopefully temporary) solution to fit the original steel swing-arm.  Adding the widths of the components together, it was 6.7mm short of the designed 301mm between arms so I machined up a thick washer and milled a "T"-shaped brass block with 10mm reamed hole to take the brake calliper pin. Original+spacers.jpg

There is a saying in Germany, with a ring of truth to it, that translates as "nothing lasts longer than a stop-gap solution"... :whistle: :grin:

 

Seriously though, well done. A very neat solution. :thumbsup:

Just keep an eye on the brass bit. If I recall correctly, the equivalent original part is steel. Maybe the brass can take it, but I'd be watching it to make sure. :huh2:
