Without researching this, I cannot be certain, but I suspect that your
errant arm is that for an LTM Viso II and not the arm for the M version of
the Viso II.  I have no explanation why that arm would be on an M Viso II;
but that is what I suspect it is.  (My LTM Viso II came with an M release
arm and it took me a while to find the appropriate LTM item to correct the
problem.)

Leica MAY still have these release arms available.
