Looking at these pulleys it would not be too difficult to start with new pulley blocks as opposed to using the existing castings,all that would be required would be a suitable wooden block that has been channeled out,into this piano wire rods could take the pulleys,any side play could be taken up with small sleeves made up from brass tube.
This would be better than trying to adapt the existing block.
A trial run will be done in the future and photographs taken.
