Firstly, I've cleaned up those overlays with Viakal and it's worked perfectly. Thank you Ian! No photos of these yet, but they will follow.
Using all the info and suggestions provided I've built up and soldered the bogie together. It looks pretty good to me.
Top side:
Upside down.
And fitted to the (as yet without the overlays) frames.
As everything so far has resolved I'm not going to stress about this yet, but I'll be checking the clearances against the adjacent frame spacer at every opportunity throughout the remainder of the chassis build.
Thanks to all who have helped me get this far. Mojo is largely restored.
