So whilst young Mr Sleeves is down in his Cold workshop....
I've been in my warm office doing some drawings :D
Details that I have determined.
The stock (old) pull rod head diameter is 11.4mm Dia. by 2.3mm thick.
The later pull rod is 13.4mm Dia by 3.8mm thick.

The positioning of the pull rod to the Lift shaft determines that the head diameter of the two different pull rods ..... makes no difference to the lift

The lever that the cable attaches to at the Engine is 46mm center to center.
On my bike there is 12 mm of travel at this lever when the clutch is pulled in.
This equates to 15° of rotation, which in turn equates to 1.54mm of lift at the pull rod.

Fantastic analysis.
 
I use a knife blade and go slow but the plastic option posted above looks good. I always grease the gaskets before installing for future dismantling, makes it much easier next time. Just takes time

Have used a metal blade before but with $4,300 cases I think it’s prudent to use plastic on the R3 case.
