I use a 4" square block with felt on top of my jack stand. It does fine jacking under the forward edge of the close out rib under the center spar section. I suppose if you wanted to use that preset piece of phenolic I would be inclined to reinforce it to the rib with 6 or more BID. One hesitancy would be that it is apparently about 6" aft of where I jack my plane. That is, it would seem to require substantially more tail weight to get to nose to come up (hold down the tail). I have the long mount. Probably a better solution would be to core out a little two inch square area under your spar skin area and put in a new phenolic block. This then could have a little hole for jack alignment. Larry
