M96 Mauser Front Sight Dovetail

Anyone know the angle, depth and width of the Mauser front sight dovetail? It’s a M96 from 1912 nothing fancy. I can’t seem to find a Lyman 17a front sight with the Mauser sized dovetail so looks like I’m going to have to modify the .360 euro size dovetail down.

I have plenty of sight blades, I’m going to install a Lyman 17 front globe sight but I will have to machine the dovetail down on the sight and was hoping someone knew what size the M96 dovetail is off the top of their head.
