Passenger bearing carrier differences

I'm at the end of my 6 speed swap into my R50 and I've hit a snag.
I had to reuse the passenger side axle bearing carrier since my new S axle didn't come with one, well apparently this was a bad idea since they apparently aren't the same.
This doesn't appear to be an individually sold part so does anyone have any idea where I could possible find one?

Here are a couple of pictures showing the bearing carrier and the gap with the new axle
