I often think slots on a tiny faceplate are more decorative than useful (scale models of large lathe accessories). Lots of old fellas would recommend a sacrificial plate of aluminum screwed or glued to to the original and then tailored to the job in hand by drilling and tapping in appropriate places. Pocketing is also possible of course.
