MG13 Sling arrangement?

What type of sling was originally used for the MG13? Am I looking at an even scarcer item than the weapon itself? Saw a few pics, but it does not look like a typical 34/42 slling.

They look almost like a k-98 sling. I don't remember where I got mine. My first one is a 1943 and my second one is a 1948. I know this doesn't help but they are out there.

Thnx Oak. Any chance I could get you to provide measurements/working drawing with pics...just might find a six pack of your favorite adult beverage on your front porch
If I cant find one, well dammit, I'll make one.
Thnx,
ick

Here are two pictures from the MG13 operator manual which show the original sling.
