Clutch Master Cylinder NLA?

It appears that the clutch master cylinder for a Series V is NLA
Do any other British cars use the same part?
 
I would think the clutch master would be available but have not tried Many 'like' masters such as Datsun can be swapped. I have used the Datsun style, worked great, from memory have do do something with pedal <> clutch cyl actuator rod to do the swap. Another option and good IMO is to have you original resleeved which I have also done thru a company called Sierra I believe. Also you might be able to find a good core maybe?
 
I just learned from Mark at Sunbeam Specialties that they have a "work around" using Tiger cylinder parts.
More to come
 
Looking at Sunbeam Specialties repair kits, one kit is used for clutch masters up to series 3 VIN B9204717 and then a second kit for later clutch masters. I think the later clutch masters are 5/8". I have an older Alpine master in my parts collection with a 3/4" bore. So that has me wondering if the earlier masters were 3/4".
