Jack Flanges

When you remove the original flange, there may be a notch under it. Then the replacement flange may fit very well. Is it the proper width for the bird's eye?

          I attached the pics of the two broken flanges.

          I ordered some standard jack flanges from Schaff and they came today.  They do not appear to be the right size.  I put it next to the original flange, and you can see quite a difference.

          Help please.

          These "broken keys" are in the center of the keyboard on my clients piano, so I will be stopping by next week and swapping the whippens from B87 and C88, so at least the piano will be playable until I get this issue resolved.

          Thanks again for your help
