It's a 50/50 shot. But having the original forend iron is a big plus. I think all of the forend woods were milled in a jig so it should be very close but there may be slight differences between frame sizes.
Just as much of a challenge is to modify an extractor forend wood to fit the ejector iron. You may just want to have a stocker like Brian Dudley make a new one for you and eliminate all the hassles. I would however, have him burnish down the points to match the wear of your gun's grip checkering.
