Hi Magnus,
You are correct that the "fixed" help tip is only correct for 60596, and that 30179 is almost certainly different.
I cannot verify whether the offsets you posted are correct for 30179 - I don't own the physical part and the LDraw version doesn't have the holes drawn in.
As a side note, I hope we can someday get this part certified - as a 3-d model it's been fine for quite a while, with all of the latest revisions only focusing on the help tip.
Cheers
ben
