Have I got the correct LH rear footrest bracket?

Hi,

When I purchased my 1100gs some 6 years ago it came with the genuine BMW black plastic panniers.
I took them off the bike shortly after I got it and have never used them since.
About 3 years ago I had a slow speed accident and did some minor but expensive damage to the bike. The repairs were carried out on the insurance and I've continued using it with no issues.
This weekend I decided to refit the panniers only to find that the LH side doesn't fit.
The rear footrest bracket pannier locating lug appears to be some 10mm too close to the pannier itself and so won't allow it to drop down on to the mounting rail alongside the seat.
The aluminium footrest bracket was replaced after the accident with a new item.
Could this be wrong. There is a number cast in it which is 314763.
The BMW parts list gives the number 314762? Does anyone know if there is a difference? I realise that the machines rear frame could be bent but on close visual inspection it looks OK.
Any help appreciated
 
hi Terry, your first post eh.
I can't find your part number ending 763
only these:
01 Footrest plate, left SCHWARZ 1 46712314761
01 Footpeg plate right SCHWARZ 1 46712314762
have you any pics?
is the plastic cover cap on to the correct one?
 
As the footpeg was replaced LHS then I assume thats the side you fell on.
I'd be looking at that Footpeg frame being bent inboard by @10mm.
If so the the repair shop didn't straighten it.

Measure the distance between both rear peg frames.
Just measured mine 48cm to the flat mounting face of the foot pegs
