Straight axle questions

We are machining a pair of new straight axles and have a couple questions. We have a pair of badly worn originals but would like to verify two things.
1. What width should the key way be? Our original is very worn and wide.
2. What is the relationship of the pin or bolt hole to the keyway? It appears to be roughly 90 degree or has a centerline perpendicular to the centerline of the keyway.
Please private message me or email me at lebsackmike@gmail.com
Thanks
