I have a practically brand new T500 keyboard that I just swapped out this morning. Maybe you could pull the necessary key(s) from it as I'm sure you wouldn't want to use it since it's so flexy - though I have heard it's better when in a t6x. If interested, pm me and I'll shoot you a price.

There are several types of keys and mountings. They cannot be interchanged.

And it's even more complex that what this might seem. Even within the same model of ThinkPad there is generally more than one contractor who's key-caps tend to not interchange. :roll:
Family Daily Drivers- T430s, T530, X220
Work- Sadly, the ThinkPads have gone away...... and replaced by HP ProDesk SFF drone machines :(
Other Projects- Edge 15, Z61m (Titanium)
Historic Retired ThinkPads- T42p, X20, A31p, 701c, 760XD, WorkPad C505
