Need Help with Name for a Part

I'm starting on metal repair for my 62 Ford F-100 Flareside. I just had the cab sandblasted and while assessing the damage, I noticed the part on the drivers side floor/firewall that the steering column passes through. It has a rubber apron held down by a metal "ring" using about seven sheet metal screws. I know I've seen this part in the web somewhere but was unable to relocate it and since I don't know the name or part number, searching is very hit and miss. Anyone know the name or part number of the item?

I don't have any reference material for a 62. Maybe Bill (Number Dummy) can help.

It sounds like the Plate (steering column opening cover) which on a 65-72 F100/F250 4X2 and 67 F350 is part number C5TZ 3B633-A.

On a 64-66 4X4 it's C3TZ 8101699-B

I wrote this during a thunderstorm and couldn't get to the shop. I'll take a couple pictures today.

On 64-66 4x4 there is actually a left and right half plates. Same deal for earlier years. This is for 61/62 F100 and others.

C1TT-8101698-F - R.H. Steering Column Opening Cover Plate - cut as required - 1 each
C1TT-8101699-G - L.H. Steering Column Opening Cover Plate - cut as required - 1 each

Pictures of Area/Part

Here are a couple pics; one where it goes and the other the part itself after removal.

Maybe it's just me, but I'd grab a piece of 18ga and a tin snips and cut me a new one in about the time it'd take me to say "first, the cardboard pattern.

Seriously, this is not a hard part to reproduce on your own.

I agree, my only concern is a rolled edge around the panel, looks like it just covers and holds the rubber sheet down. Flat edge should work just as well. Thanks for the idea.
