The head just isn't as thick as the originals, Royce.  Probably as close as one can get.
I can't say for sure if it is a 12; don't have a gauge.

They screw into the alloy reflector housing, into a cast boss, which is tapped to match the threads.  The blunt end is important so that the screw doesn't "bottom out".  One screw serves as the grounding point for the multi-socket wiring harness eyelet.  I've wondered if this grounding arrangement may contribute to the nagging taillight issues,

Thank you, Dan, for these closeup pictures of the choke cable bracket differences.  You enabled me to identify the "lazy Z" bracket which I have had for years.  Your knowledge is amazing.

A collector car (read not driven) may not purposely be registered for these reasons, which may become an issue when sold.

I've had a strong curiosity about Group II cars since first hearing about them, so I appreciate this topic.  Happy to learn any information on these that I can.  Please continue. 

Hey, Vern: any pictures?

Or, wait until the hottest day of the summer and leave the car out in full sun all day to make the plastic as flexible as possible.  Seriously.

Your chrome shop must understand that the autolite must be preserved in their process.  That is the whole point. 
If they fill it in and buff it out, it is ruined.
