m24 mex mauser bolt body question

I have a firing pin and cocking piece assembly for a M24 Mex Mauser, but no bolt body. The 1909 Peruvian and 1935 Argentine have the same bolt body lengths (6.165"), but each has a different firing pin length. And the M24 Yugo has a different bolt body length (6.115") than the M24 Mex (6.165"), but the firing pin OA length is close (7.24" vs 7.208")

Can I use any of these other intermediate bolt bodies in the M24 Mex with the M24 firing pin and receiver? Alternatively, could I use a fully assembled bolt body & firing pin from one of the other intermediates in the M24 Mex receiver?

I'll try to remember to look at my Kuhnhausen book tonight and see if the info is there.

All the measurements I reference in my original post come from Kuhnhausen. There are differences in the lengths of bolt body/firing pins...just trying to understand my options.
