Replacement relay for Project/One Mark IV B receiver?

Hi folks. I have a Project/One Mark IV B receiver here. The relay was having issues and I went to replace it, but it is an unusual size. It is the same as a MY2-02-24VDC relay but is smaller, and the pins are closer together. It is marked MHP2P0-240-01 24 volts DC. Any idea what the modern replacement is? I know there are ways to make a modern larger really fit in there, but I would really love to find the exact right one if it exists.

Hello EastPoint, I was wondering if you ever managed to find this replacement relay. I need the same one to rescue a Telefunken TR-727 amplifier.
 
No, I don’t know of an exact replacement. Your best bet is to use a MY2-0-DC24 or LY2-0-DC24 and either drill new holes in the board (mot ideal) or epoxy it to the chassis and run wires to the board underside. I do that—it works out pretty nicely.
 
I just replaced one in my Mark IV B this afternoon. I soldered longer leads onto the MY2-02-DC24, then I wedged a small piece of wood about a ¼" thick under the relay between the leads lengthwise. I then bent the leads inwards until they lined up with the holes, pushed it on until the wood contacted the board, then soldered it in place.

No need to lengthen the two leads on the relay near the three pins to the left on the circuit board as they aren't used.
