Default FW Parts Fabrication Source

Can anyone tell me what stock they used to fabricate the following parts on the firewall.

F-601E-1 stiffener: its a 8" piece of angle. I do not want to cut the wrong piece. I have one .063 3/4x3/4 piece of angle that is 6' long that does not have a part number on it. Should I use this?

F-601Z and F-601TD: Both are made from .063 2024. I looked through my packing list and could not find any random sheets of .063. I did find one AS3-063x3 7/8x11 but I don't want to cut this sheet up if it is supposed to be used elsewhere. What did everyone else use?

Thanks in advance.

Have you checked out the complete list of parts that came with the kit where every component of the RV-7 is listed? If it is a part you have to fabricate, it tells you the stock you have to fabricate it from.
Van's is sometimes generous in this respect and you sometimes have enough left to make another part if the first one wasn't to your satisfaction.
