Hello Ian,
have dismantled the winder cover and found that I have the Mark 2 Ruby spring arrangement as per your photo. The spring has no bent end so is similar to the Ruby spring that you showed. I have managed to bend the end of the spring so that it now sits in position on that little hub as shown for the Morris 1000.
But I cannot get the spring and hub back into the cover. It seems that the spring needs to be wound a little to reduce the coil diameter to fit within the cover. Did you encounter this when you fitted the Morris 1000 spring?
