    Just need a residio or white rodgers combo fan/limit control with the appropriate probe length.

    Measure the insertion piece. Resideo Fan/Limit. It comes with instructions when there's two different voltages, which you have. You'll have to cut a jumper.

    Probably will have to drill some new holes to mount it, don't go too deep and use short screws, you just want to drill through the cabinet, not in to the heat exchanger.

    Honeywell L4064B. They make several models. Insertion can be 5 1/2", 8" or 11" Fan/limit control

    Insertion piece is 3.5 inches. There is only 4 inches of space in compartment.

    The existing is two separate controls, where the new one will be a combination fan/limit. Some metal fabrication will need to be done so everything is properly sealed.

    that corrugated stuff inside the cabinet is very likely asbestos millboard.

    I don't know if you can get one that short.

    You could buy one with the 5 1/2 " insertion and put a spacer behind it.

    Or (although not the best fix) put the new one in the plenum up above and put the old one back in just to close the hole.
