Can't you apply what you learned from your thread
Cut & awk four days ago to this thread? You have exactly the same problem assuming that some elements of a pipeline will only process some of the lines they are fed or that lines thrown away by some element of a pipeline will still magically appear in your output.
You didn't ask any questions about the suggestions you were given there, so we assume that you understand how those suggestions work.

CUT(1) General Commands Manual CUT(1)
NAME
cut - select out columns of a file
SYNOPSIS
cut [ -b | -c] list [file...]
cut -f list [-d delim] [ -s]
OPTIONS
-b Cut specified bytes
-c Select out specific characters
-d Change the column delimiter to delim
-f Select out specific fields that are separated by the
-i Runs of delimiters count as one
-s Suppres lines with no delimiter characters, when used
EXAMPLES
cut -f 2 file # Extract field 2
cut -c 1-2,5 file # Extract character columns 1, 2, and 5
cut -c 1-5,7- file # Extract all columns except 6
DESCRIPTION
[file...]" delimiter character ( see delim)" with the -f option. Lines with no delimiters are passwd through untouched"
Cut extracts one or more fields or columns from a file and writes them on standard output. If the -f flag is used, the fields are sepa-
rated by a delimiter character, normally a tab, but can be changed using the -d flag. If the -c flag is used, specific columns can be
specified. The list can be comma or BLANK separated. The -f and -c flags are mutually exclusive. Note: The POSIX1003.2 standard requires
the option -b to cut out specific bytes in a file. It is intended for systems with multi byte characters (e.g. kanji), since MINIX uses
only one byte characters, this option is equivalent to -c. For the same reason, the option -n has no effect and is not listed in this man-
ual page.
