The one I have (in the photo) I speculate actually came off a RK which a guy in Crewe seems to have broken up in the 1990's, the mortal remains of (chassis, v5 and cowl) I also had and sold on to someone who probably lurks on here. I also had the bonnet (now gracing an AE chummy) and the R47's, but nothing else identifyable. I guess I may have its axles and wheels, but thats a guess. Nevertheless assuming someone hadn't taken a tin opener to my floor, it would fit the RL (I have tried it), but it doesn't cover all the holes.
The AE I had AE also came with an identical one, or rather I assume it was identical as that too would fit the RL (I tried it).
No idea about the EA. Your probably in a good position to suggest cars that may not have been buggered about with that may yeild answers that a historian would be happy with.
I have to say that I'd be surprised if they are not the same component, or started life as the same component, just hand fitted to suit.
