If you can post pictures of the Bench Ends, I would appreciate seeing the differences.
Here are some pics to illustrate the comparison.

The older bench leg (original to my recently restored 10E) has the original sticker and no holes for caster assemblies. The three main holes in the top for pivot base or tail rest attachment are in a straight line (I’ve circled two additional owner-drilled holes).

The newer bench leg has no sticker, but has holes for caster assemblies. Its three primary holes are offset.

Interesting. The early Bench end with the SS decal has the same "extra" holes as the one in the picture I posted. Was it factory or similarly done by owners for mounting the Headrest?
