SME Headshell Standard Dimensions & AR XA/XB

Does anyone know the SME standard dimension between the underside of the headshell where the cartridge attaches and the centerline of the connector barrel? The only reference I can find are two Jelco headshells that show the dimension as 4.5mm. I have a variety of headshells and they vary. Is 4.5mm the standard? Also, what is the dimension used on AR XAs and XBs? Thanks!

Thanks! In the neighborhood but I'd ask you to turn the tape 90 degrees to measure what is in red below. (I just learned how to annotate a pdf on a Mac)
