Question Cortina Mk2 Column Shift Bushes

Hi All,
Im in the process of getting my Cortina Mk2 back on the road. It has the 4 speed column shift which is not shifting well.
I inspected the linkages and found 2 bushes completly missing and others that need replacing. I think I have identified the missing ones see attached pic

#1 is missing and seems to be 12.7mm 1/2inch Inside Diameter, 19.05mm 3/4 Outside Diameter but I'm not sure how long and I guess it is flanged. I am considering BF0127-0191-0381-BS2432TH

#2 and #4 seem to be the same, they are still in place but it would be nice to replace them anyway they seem to be 6.35mm 1/4 in ID, 14.287mm 9/16 OD and 8mm long with a flange but I cant find a suitable replacement.

#3 is missing and seems to be 9.525mm 3/8 in ID, 15.87mm 5/8 OD and 8mm long?? I am considering BF0095-0159-0095-BS1932TT and making it fit.

Does anyone know the recommended bush sizes?
Does anyone know where these bushes can be sourced?
And your thoughts on my plan?
Any other recomendations to get the column shift operating well?
Thanks in advance
Ray
