Raw Nickel Covers for my Epiphone - Help!

[gilmanoel]

Hi! I want to buy raw nickel covers for my Epiphone Tribute 1960+ with Gibson 57 and 57+ pickups. I am between these two PLT options:

49.2mm PAF '50s Spec Humbucker Pickup Cover

Luthier tools and guitar building parts for domestic and import. You will find knobs, bridges, tailpieces, pickguards, inlays, speciality files, saws

49.2mm (1 15/16") Humbuck Pickup Cover

Luthier tools and guitar building parts for domestic and import. You will find knobs, bridges, tailpieces, pickguards, inlays, speciality files, saws

1. Which of the two options are the covers used by the Gibson Historic VOS (as in the Joe Walsh models) closer to?
2. Will the PAF/Vintage cover match the Epiphone rings? Is the size the same as modern covers?
3. 50mm or 49.2mm?

Thank you very much.

A Gibson pickup's default pole spacing is 49.2mm.
You can measure them from E to e, same side of each pole.
