Alright.  Time to get this thread back on track.  I picked up the new cam lever and it is stamped with an A.  So far so good.  Tore the rifle and found the two matched almost perfectly.  Then I put on the mad scientist glasses could barely make out an A on the original.  Grrrrrrr. >:(  Then I nearly lost the cam lever pin.  Arrrrgh!  :(

All is not lost.  The new lever has better contact points and I guess I'll use it.

I am still in the hunt for an A marked carrier.  If I can find that in the next few months I will just have to build up the tip of the cam lever to get the height I need for the last two rounds.

Oh the joy of guns.  :P
