Need advice on spring spacers/pads

I've have searched until my eyes glazed over and didn't find any useful info on this. I want to lower the front of my w123 wagon a little and it seems like the right path is to install a thinner coil spring pad/spacer. I have the following questions:

--Did 123 wagons all come with the same factory spacer? If so, which one is it.

--How much actual lowering does each thinner spacer provide?

--Do I need to get the suspension re-aligned after changing spacers? (I'm thinking not since you are basically lowering the body over the suspension, not changing any suspension geometry.)

Thanks in advance for any answers you can provide!
