    I also forgot to mention, if you look at the 3rd wheel pivot on the front plate you can see it is very close to the edge of the plate and a normal bergeon bush would have meant having to break out of the plate to get it to fit so I used a french bouchon https://www.cousinsuk.com/catalog/clock-parts/french-mantel-bushes/bushes-french-clock-large#select
    If you are not familiar with these they are just a long but fine bush with a snap off bit on the top, so you cut your new hole, hammer in the bush and then snap of the top bit. Just makes them a lot easier to handle.
