Welcome,
Good-a-place as any to post, is also a classified/Marketplace section,;) I'm not 100% sure But I think the 2000 hood is close to the same,
A year or so back I had asked about why think the hole didn't line up center of the fuel tank filler hole? it was not clear as to why,

I also notice the hood seem to hang over the dash more than needed, what i think happen, I suspect due to the steering wheel being bent egg shape when I got the tractor, I think the tractor might had went over at some point damaging the hood beyond repair, So they replace it with what they could find, Being that of a 2000, this could explain the misalignment of the fuel filler hole, actually later on it bug me to the point that I wound up cutting off the hinge pivots and extending it 1" forward ;)
Perhaps we can get some of the 2000 owners/members to post measurements and compare the two,:)

They said they would call back if one could be located. Also said $400 if one is available.
