Ran into an oddball chain today. It's a Homelite D1, .325, .050 and had 73 links. I was cutting it down to 72 when I noticed the side straps I took off didn't match my Oregon presets. Then I was worried this was some of that .315 chain, but it's not. On the Homelite D1 the center to center measurement of a drive link is longer than an Oregon 33. To make up for that length difference, the center to center of the Homelite D1 preset is shorter than the Oregon 33 preset. I stretched both chains out and the drive link tips match perfect. I have 11 presets and tie straps for this odd chain and if anyone needs them I would trade straight across for Oregon .325 links.
