TBH, I have no recollection what mine looked like.

With the absence of a bearing there, Im going to make the assumption (and it is an assumption) that the area you're concerned about either has very little movement (the gear spins at the same speed or close to the same speed) or very little pressure that it's subject to.

Id still get measurements to be sure. It would probably be cheaper than buying a new CS
Thank you for the advice. I'll have the clearances checked, then see if I can find the specs you're referring to. I know there must be a tolerance detail somewhere, but that sorta information is like finding hens teeth.
