FN-49 7x57 stripper clip Q's!

So I have a Venezuelan 7x57 Mauser FN-49 and am having trouble finding compatible stripper clips. Currently, I have some SEY marked .308 clips with one "middle lug" that work great but are dull parkerized steel. I even have some Kynoch-manufactured 7x57 on nice nickel-plated original clips but they don't slide down far enough to feed the rounds into the magazine due to the "two lug" / "four nub" design.

Internet searches have only netted decade-and-a-half-old forums with little success. So far I've tried Swedish Mauser 6.5mm, Spanish Mauser 7mm, and I believe 7.65 Mauser clips without success. Currently, as of this post, I have seen that maybe 30-06 Mauser style clips may work but they also have the "two-lug" style. Does anyone have any suggestions or other info? Thanks all.
