MFG 19 boom attachment question

Hello all. I have a virgin mast. The boom has never been attached and I think I'm missing the necessary hardware. Does anybody have a photo of where the boom meets the mast ?

Mine has a slug that fits into the sail track. Page 3 of the rigging info here says much the same. I can snag you a few photos this weekend, but I'm sailing in a regatta, so it may be monday before I can get them up.

Photos as promised. I can get anything else you may need, just let me know.
And thank you for posting shots of your rudder!

Wow thanks Dale ! That's exactly what I needed to see. I am missing the majority of the hardware in your pics. I borrowed your file and drew a line around what I lack.

Is that something I can order as an aftermarket part ?

I think I found it. Do those sound like the right dimensions ?

I think those are too large; though they look right. I have 7/16" slug bails, I think my slot is 1/2". I can measure it this weekend if you need.
