Yes Buzz makes the slender long model under the William Gibson label. I had one and for size 42 the shoulder is 19", P2P 24", back length 23" to knits, 26" including knits, front zipper length is 23.5"***, this is the long part, made for lower jeans or untucked shirts.
The RMC B-15C/MA-1 I have are repros so it probably fits different than your Steve Mcqueen one. Size 42 has 20.5" shoulder, 26.5" P2P, back length 23" to knits, 26" including knits, front zipper length is 22.5" (one inch shorter than the Buzz slender long).
You can also take a look at Toys Mccoy version, Toys size 42 is RMC size 40 with one inch less in all around but same sleeve length (only shorter body length), you can check to see if this is longer than the Mcqueen jacket you've got. There are tons of Toys Mccoy Albert Turner label MA-1 jackets out there on the used market so they can be had for very good prices, in almost new conditions.
Yeah the length of the Steve McQueen MA-1 is: 60 cm (approx. 23.6 inches)
