Welshy, why don't you try counter sinking the bottom of the pivot block & tap your filed shaft. This way, your can mount your pivot block on your gear box from the bottom first, then mount the lower chassis to the pivot block.
Cant wait for the layshaft, as I need one to fully test my gearbox.

Looks is what I am after as well so rather have a cut out in the middle (like a U bend in the centre of the bottom of the pivot block so a nut can go in there and the small headed screw will go in at the top through the pole stiffener so will be more appealing to the eye.

Im doing a cad drawing and will JPEG it for you. Maybe you could get an alloy one made.
