I've always simply called it "Selectric mount".

I would say "blade" mount.

Wonder if you could make some kind of slit for the light to show through for a post modern nixie like effect. Looks amazing for something so old

You got it from Sellam? I was too late or I would have gotten it as a spare. Best of luck on the restoration and take plenty of pics!
