C'mon, the horizontal spacing is obviously centered and thus easily calculated. His question is the vertical spacing of the holes relative to the center of the port. That dimension is obviously not centered, and there is no way to calculate the amount of offset from the information given. You can scale it, but he's asking for factory dimensions, as I understand his question.

It's all really moot - as has been pointed out there are already a ton of bare flanges on the market by people buying materials in bulk, and doing one that reinvents the accuracy is not going to be the multi-million dollar marketing idea never done before, but may be a dandy highschool tech center project.
