Once again, my thanks for your help.

Hi NateDC,
I appreciate that you are able to double check the holes and they do align perfectly. This will greatly help others if they come across the same scenario. Thanks for sharing the pics as well. I will recommend your post to others in the future.
Thank you for your time as well, glad that you are all good now.
