Which line cord to get for my NEC?

I'm not going to find anything specifically for this NEC, so I have to settle for one of the choices on OFW.  Black and cloth covered, but I don't know which of the choices they have would be the best match.

According to their website they have four types, which differ in the length of the tails, and type of restraint. The lengths of the line cords at the telephone end are:

WE 7 inch.
AE 4 inch.
SC 3 inch.
Kellogg 1.5 inch.

Looks from your pictures like 1.5 inch might just be long enough.  You'll probably need to remove the restraint.

These are in the spade-spade section, but I think they do the same in spade-modular, if that's what you want, but only with plastic inner insulation, spade-spade are available with plastic or cloth.

For the handset cords it's:

WE 7 inch.
AE 4 inch.
SC 1.5 inch.
Kellogg 1.5 inch.

at the telephone end.
