Slinger Ring Help

[KS K5]

Hello fellow Blazers, just joined the forum and am in the middle of reassembling my '72 K5. When the front axles came out for cleaning and other work, the inboard slinger ring from my right axle was rusted enough that the flange just came off. I have scoured the internet for weeks trying to find this inner slinger ring and cannot seem to find it. Does anyone have a part number for this ring? For reference, I've attached a photo of both of my axles (one with both slingers, one with only one) and a photo from the service manual depicting the inboard slinger than I'm after. TIA!

I measured the outside diameter at about 2.5", the inside diameter at about 1.385". From what I can see, the ones referenced above do not quite fit these dimensions.

I wouldn't sweat the loss if you can't find it. I don't have all 4.

Those slinger rings were only used on the early small joint (jeep sized that use a 260 joint) axle shafts. You would be much better off to get some later large joint shafts that don't use the slinger on the inner shaft, the larger 297 joints are about 30% stronger than the stupid 260 joints that will brake as soon as you lock the hubs.
