Default Missing Dust Cap - Need Measurement

I need to get a new dust cap for the right front wheel on my '75. Since the car is in the shop, I can't measure the diameter of the wheel where the wheel bearings are located. I have the stock 15" rally wheels. The ones I have to choose from are all within a few 32nds of each other. Does anyone know or have this measurement?

Please clarify; do you want the actual dust cap that fits on the hub or a center cap that somehow fits the stock rally wheels?

The dust cap has an o.d of 2.075" (or so, I measured up to 2.077).

Need the diameter for the small dust cap that fits over the hub, not the rally wheel center cap.
