ORANGE RAL Codes repair Humber, RIbtec etc

Hi
I want to fill some old gauge holes on a orange Humber destroyer console.
Then, after keying the whole console I intend to flowcoat then rub back and polish the whole console in preperation for new fit out on my Humber Attaque which has the old white console which will be coming out.

I am making my own mould for a secondary seat arrangement so want to match both.

Does anyone know the RAL codes used for any of the rib builders?

I am going to use one of these colours as the prices seem very reasonable for the qty:
Gelcoat filler - East Coast Fibreglass Supplies (this is gelcoat filler but the flowcoat is in same colours)

The Orange colours on offer here are
RAL 2001 (too red)
RAL 2003
RAL 2004
RAL 2011

and "International Orange" which strangely is down the list from the other orange colours.

Any reccomendations as to match with HUMBER or experience of any of the RAL orange listed?

I think my choice is between 2004, 2011 or international judging by the swatch but trouble is PC screen is not same as real life.

So any advice most welcome.
Thanks all.

Actually I emailed Sue last Thursday, still waiting for a reply, I was hoping for a quick reply here so I could order Friday morning.

I am amazed nobody has come back with any codes at all yet? surely its not some kind of trade secret?
