Block plate swap

I did not know if this should go in the engine section, or transmission section, as I need info about the block plate between the two.
This is between a 460 and a 4 speed transmission that is missing the block plate.
I would like to know if I can use an automatic block plate instead of a manual one. It looks like the only difference is that the auto plate has a strip running through the “Triangle” opening at the top. If I cut that out will it work?
Thanks, Bill
