Hi Jim, the bolt hole *is* off center in the OEM application, and I'd agree
with his p/n also. I've used the whole assembly, with aluminum housing, and
it wasn't horrendously priced at all, and saves money spent at the press
also. But if you've already got the mount, just watch the orientation and
press 'er in.
