Save yourself the time and aggravation of trying to find the correct rd. This one will.
https://www.interlocracing.com/shop/product/60110-ird-front-derailleur-sub-c-braze-on-2351?search=derailleur Buy the bolt on mount and your done. Its not the cheapest option but it works really well. Also for Shimano drive trains the gap between the front derailleur and the the large ring should only be a few millimeters. Yes you can make other derailleurs work and it might be fine.
