for sure no space on the labels on cat# PL71932 like there is here. And also has larger space between Side notifications and cat no.

Very similar to Hold Me In Your Arms but differs from labels.
This has the 33-triange beside center hole, and artist name between tracklist and producing credits

Etched runouts (Ⅱ = II)

https://www.discogs.com/release/4375015-Rick-Astley-Hold-Me-In-Your-Arms - I have 2 copies, one has the 33-triange beside center hole on both sides and one the 33-triange at 6 O Clock on Side 1 and the 33-triange beside center hole on Side 2. The latter has a hype sticker on the front of the sleeve in top right corner I have not seen on any other issue in hand or on Discogs. Any thoughts Discoggers?
