My WAG ... 2-3/8". Measure the solenoid (cast iron lump
between the alloy base and Bakelite cover) ... the solenoid
that takes the 2-3/8" diaphragm will measure 'bout 2-1/4"
whereas the one that takes the 3" diaphragm will measure
'bout 2-7/8".

Gaskets ... your points seem to have functioned admirably,
but you might consider either one of the new fangled "zener
diodes" or the transistor/diode combo, if not already fitted.
