wrapping up this post...
I've managed to attach the dovetail plate directly to the mount head. There was an issue in that one of the original connecting plates had come off, but a resourceful previous owner had drilled a hole in the head itself which allowed a bolt to connect a second plate, on top of which the dovetail plate was attached.
I've tapped a new hole in the dovetail plate, so this extra plate is not necessary. Saves almost 700g weight on this axis, so I'm very happy.
Cheers
Stephen
