Default Haban 60" needs a little help

Let me start by say hello and great site. Sites with resources like this are priceless.

So between my father, brother and I we currently keep gas in 6 cadets, from a stock 73, ag duelly 73, 1864, 2185, 2205 and my latest pride and joy(maybe) my first sgt 1988 2072 w/ a 60" Haban.

2072 has 622 hrs showing, runs great and i would say better than average condition. The Haban a little worse off, the previous owner did rebuild the front raised "discharge" channel and did it right. 2 issues i have right now the middle blade mows high, which could be spacers, worn or bent spindles/mount, pretty sure I can get though that with a straight edge and some time, real issue is the deck is missing all the internal shrouds/baffles that aid in the discharging clippings. I could not find anything in terms of replacement parts to that level. So my plan is to rebuild the internals. I did see photos other have posted and i am hoping i can find where the old parts once were but i was hoping find someone who could give me a clearance dimension from the blade tip to there baffles? Looks like about 3/8". Also i haven't pulled the deck yet so this is all i know to be wrong with unit,

Thanks in advance for any help and i will take some pictures and post case others want to tackle something like this,
