Edit:
See post #5 for my solution.

I have the three hole forward feet with the bales but I missing the back two feet and can't find the proper part.
Do you guys know what HP part will work in those two hole styles?
These generators have come down in value but I would like to bring it up to OEM condition.

But as far as the part number, you should be able to find it in the manual. It is used on many other HP devices and they are usually available on ebay but not the best prices.
 
HP part number 5040-7201 for the rear foot.
The front part is a different number as is the bail.
So there’s a dedicated two hole part number.
Thanks for the help.
 
I could mod the foot by eliminating the middle third pin?
Thanks for the help.

First off, I was looking for the wrong part number. The two hole mounting is located on the front and the "Standard" three hole is the back feet.
There was a post on the EEVBlog that a OP imaged of his two hole mounting. The OP cut off the middle peg and said it worked but he hadn't tried it with the bale installed. What the heck, so I cut off that third peg and it works with the bale and you can see how the fit looks. It seems to work well. I think HP had a small issue and overcame it using and modifying an existing part?
