Yes looked at many all seem to be 22mm , can't seem to find a 18mm one.. many don't specify 18mm in height

I have one but the length is 75mm from backplate and the centre to the hole is 55mm to the hole. It also has a brass front plate
You are welcome to it pal.

You'd have to drill new hole for spindle, then move handles over, then fill in screw holes, or spend £5.36 and it fits.
