While plane is leveled according to specs
Left main gear 644 pounds
Right main gear 631 pounds
Nose gear 528 pounds
Total, 1803 pounds.

I'm not real sure how they get the CG while the left and right weights are
different. Do they average them? I don't have the measurements for the gear

No need, since I'm assuming both gear are the same distance back from the
datum. All the fact that there is a diffence tells you is that the c/g
will be slightly off the centreline of the aircraft.

with me at the moment, I intend to use the standard values for the plane
rather than measing my particular plane.

Yeah, that should be it. It's pretty simple, take the three weights,
multiply each one by the distance from the datum to that scale, add those
numbers together, and divide by the total weight.

to lubricate their throat so they can speak their own language.
