If the trans still has the bellows type seal, that is around 3/4" tall so could cover all of the yoke. Have no clearance with the more usual flat seal and the yoke will bottom out during suspension travel leading to failure of the UJ most likely.

Bit of an update.
Took my prop to H Chard who specialise in propshafts up in Bristol. With a quick look they confirmed;
Worn yoke where UJs fit
Props has one of the yoke ears on the Bananarama!
They sourced a suitable yoke off the shelf. Apparently Bristol cars used them with 727 transmissions. Which is helpful
Prop will be machined and balanced and hopefully the vibration issues will go with it.
