I'll take a look at chance later this week. Send u a PM if I find anything similar in our knob boxes in the studio.
 
Had a look now but didn't find a match for the ones on the picture u sent. Sorry for getting your hopes up. :/
 
The caps in the  in your original post is not the caps for the metalknobs Neve used.
They are for the large new appearance 80 series still with plastic knobs.
The metal knobs used some kind of plastic/metal film insert similar to API knobs

Hello Api , much thanks for post !
the image posted at first post  show the cap with 3 indigo color variations required  ,

i agree about the colors and dimensions are the same for the Neve series with plastic knobs ,

about the various Neve devices model indicated in the first post , have metal knobs , with screw for lock !
have had  all of them between my fingers !

and some ,  still now in front over the desk that need plastic cap replacement ,
(as  also many other around the world need… )

the issue is the high price for caps , and  f….. expensive ship cost ,

if i were to sell them , i would sell them in sets with minimum quantity also assorted ,  at a quarter of the price ,
(or less more if made in china ,  or around "there")

considered that are not the Marconi type
but only little plastic disks  : (
