Woodruf Key

Anyone know the length of the woodruff key for the 1947 Dodge axel ??

I don't know the length, but it normally sold in bulk lengths   Local hardware store handles 6 and 12".  I think they are 3/8sq, but just measure the width of the axle groove.  And, they aren't Woodruff keys, just plain key stock.  Woodruffs are arc shaped, and the shaft socket is cut with a circular cutter cutter.
