That bushing (spacer, part #213409) actually measures up as follows:

1-3/16 OD x 21/32 ID x 1.307 Long

There is a 1/8 long 45° chamfer on the OD of one end. There is a 3/32 long 45° chamfer on the ID at that same end. The other end has a 1/16 long 45° chamfer on the OD only.

I don't think you have to be that precise unless you want near perfect originality. The hole in the weights is 1-1/4 dia x 1-3/4 deep. The holes in the front support plate are 11/16 dia. I'm using 1/2 x 2-1/4 long hex head bolts to attach mine to the front plate. With dimensions noted, 5/8 dia bolts would also work but are certainly not necessary. There doesn't seem to be any obvious reason why the length is so precise. It doesn't need to be. As long at the bushing itself plus the bolt head or nut doesn't protrude 1-3/4 or more from the front plate, it should work fine.
