3000 Gas Ignition Switch

1973 Gas 3000.
Factory wiring as far as I can tell.
Current switch is an obvious replacement, 5 position, 7 pole deal that has corrosion around the exterior and isn't reliable. Blades for two terminals have been cut off.

I ordered this switch from this site: https://www.yesterdaystractors.com/Ford-3000_Ignition-Switch-Keyed_D3NN11N572A.html

What showed up is a Morel brand switch marked C5NN11N572A which matches the parts manual.
BUT the replacement switch is a 4 position switch with a left momentary contact in addition to off, run, and momentary start positions.
None of the terminals are tied together externally or internally like they should be, I checked this with an ohmeter.
The run position only connects the wide terminal to a single narrow terminal.
The back of the switch doesn't match either photo shown for this part.

I could hack the wiring up but not going to - I will call to get the return on this rolling tomorrow, but I'm wondering if anyone has a known replacement.

I do not want the other switch this site sells. It is the same as the one coming out and was meant for a diesel.
 
Quick update, the switch I received seems to be mistakenly labeled by the manufacturer - terminal configuration and 4 switch positions are like what would be expected for a diesel with heater.

YT customer service helped me out and the correct switch is on the way.
