Default T4 Alternator Drop Bracket

Has anyone got the spec of one of these. After a lot of futile searching I couldn't find one so I am going to knock one up but I need to know the sizes.

Basically mate its a plate that you bolt onto the block and then you bolt the standard bracket to that.

Sound, I think I 'll just buy one. Knocking one up was a last resort. Looks like I didn't search hard enough

I'd like to know who is the best for these too ? And a dumb question , do you have to angle grind the loop that sticks out of the base of the block to get these on ??

It lowers the Alternator away from the Hot turbo and manifold , saves melting the wires etc...
