If you can get a copy of David R. Chicoine's book Smith & Wesson Six guns of the Old West, he has excellent drawings of various American model parts including the long arm cylinder stop for the first model American. While it says drawings are not to scale, I'm guessing the proportions are almost perfect, knowing his skill.
See page 231 for the parts I'm describing. I'd include a photo but I'm not a copyright thief.
