i think with the straight slot your pivot will be limited to the slot clearance which might be enough to get things straight but you could need more? the arc would not be hard to figure out. the radius would be from the center line of the pivot to the center line of the slot. it would basically be a slot following a bolt circle diameter. that would let the pivot point get move travel for adjustment.
