Postino,
As you say, original British No.5 rifles have a unique foresight blade with a narrow dovetail base.
The "India pattern" replacements from Numrich seem to be sized for the standard .250" dovetail of the No.4 rifle. The only problem I've found is that the blade heights of the 2 rifles are not directly related. You will have to adjust point of aim by trial and error.
