NH front hitch?

Picked this up at an auction. Was listed as "front hitch, unknown application". The owner had a 8340 and a 8670, so I thought it might be from one of them. (paint would suggest the 8670) Hoping it will bolt onto a 5000. Anyone here recognize it?

Looks way too small for an 8670. It looks like the hole spacing is close for a 5000, but the slotted holes don't look like they'd accept 3/4" bolts to me.
 
(quoted from post at 07:03:39 09/21/18) I can't identify it, but it looks like it should fit on a '65+ 4000/5000/7000 front bolster.

Got a 4000 outside with two factory watermelon weights on it and that hitch on front.
 
I didn't really give you anything for perspective. It's 6 1/4" x 12 3/4". The 3/4" bolts fit easily, to the point I'd want washers under the heads.
 
Doesn't fit... even at their narrowest, the slotted holes are about 2" wider than the bolt holes in the 5000's bolster. Oh, well... I'm not out much.

Can you drill new holes?

Maybe could... but only have bits to 5/8". Would
literally spend more on a 3/4" bit than I did for the
hitch.
