Can't help with the thickness but whether you find or need to make one, did want to caution about remembering there is an offset between mounting holes and center hole on the spacer. The offset is so slight it can be difficult to notice visually but the solenoid and spacer can be forced and will still seem to tighten up even if bolted incorrectly. If that occurs, the spacer can be damaged and the solenoid plunger will be sluggish or bind completely. Depending on the vintage of the factory spacer, small holes located nearer one side of the spacer or actually on one side will be at the rear of the car if properly installed.

Long time since I did mine to remember for sure but doesn't the spacer also hold a round plunger oil seal in position?

maybe so, but there is an offset orientation as well as tolerence for a shaft seal. I just looked in the drawer and I've only got half a dozen that are useless to me. Lemme send you one so you can focus on the other to-do's on your list...
Yes, I see you are in Australia. Not a problem. PM me your address DAF
