I used to own an HMV 163, and have attached a photo of the area that you are interested in.

Bruce, Thanks for your reply!  The slots don't have any metal  trim.
Perhaps it is available somewhere? I have a Victor Tungstone tin and will try
it out to see if it fits.

Does anyone reading this have an HMV - 163? I'd love to see a picture of the side of the motorboard with the needle receptacles, to know what I'm looking for. Since the waste-needle cup is missing from this machine and there are the empty slots in the wood on either side I suspect there's a
single unit that fits into the space.

All the Best,
