I own a nice 4-1/2. I bought it because I don't have one and I rarely, if ever find them in the wild. Looks to be about the same vintage as yours. I didn't really think I'd use it much but it gets use...

Cool.. like said above.. I'd probably notch that stud. Maybe run a couple lag bolts into what's left above. Wasn't quite clear if you are running duct in the cavity or planing to use the cavity for ...
