No, they don't .

Try the correct factory ones, you'll see .
The correct factory hanger for 107 SLs (1972-1985), is 1074920082 (donuts). This according to MB EPC. When I enter 1074920044, it says it is for some 107s, - just 86-89 560SL in NA.

You are richer than I am - those hangers cost about $27 each from MB!

This site says they don't fit the W123. That is an aftermarket one which is a LOT less expensive. They may just not "officially" fit Wonder if the cheap knock-offs have the chain?

All academic for me - I have the type on my W123 that I posted a pic of earlier . My 107, has the usual "factory correct" donuts
