  A consistent set of statistical-model input parameters, validated by analysis
of various independent data, makes possible the assessment of an
$\alpha$-particle optical model potential [Phys. Rev. C {\bf 90}, 044612
(2014)] also for nucleon-induced $\alpha$-emission within $A$$\sim$60
mass-number range. The advantage of recent data for low-lying states feeding is
taken as well. Consideration of additional reaction channels leading to
increase of the $\alpha$-emission beyond the statistical predictions has
concerned the pickup direct interaction and Giant Quadrupole Resonance similar
features.
