Default Headlight Adjusting Screw Length

Hi

I've got a set of two light headlamps that had the bulb holders and adjusting screws etc missing. I have the new parts but the adjusting screws that have been provided are too long. I'm going to cut these down to the length of the shorter screws. Can anyone advise of the length of the shorter screws please?

1 3/32" according to my October 1, 1929 Parts Price List.

30-1 may be different?

My 7/1/31 book says the 30-31 part is A-20255 and is 11/16" long.
