Jim,
I think I know the rack you are looking for, I have one on my 67' B. I
also believe I have seen the other rack you have just purchased. My rack
has only four attachments and is tubular chrome throughout. The only
other rack I have seen (mostly on A's) seems to have two flat pieces that
mount to the trunk and from there tubular chrome is used (don't you just
love those technical explainations). I have a parts catalog at home and
I will bring it in tomarrow to let you know the MG part number (if it is
in the book, and if someone hasn't already answered your question).
I am sure it is the same in the States but I have seen many B's with my
rack Downunder (here) in Australia.
