Jack, I apologize, but I'm on meds, and unsure what you are asking.

I'll try to help

There are a number of 7.65 on aluminum bases, I just bought one off ebay a few months ago
Aluminum bases were first used in 1925 with Simson lugers and then in 1926 (?) there was a policy that they could use wood until they ran out, and units / depots were to use aluminum bases.
If that is not what you were looking for, perhaps someone else can help, or i can look later.
