grammar - Confusion in was and were: The diameter length of X,Y,Z was/were 4,5,6 respectively

I am confused with the usage of was vs were in the following sentence:



The length of diameter of three plates X, Y, Z was/were 4, 5, 6 respectively.



I am not sure which one is correct: was or were.




Should it be "was" since it's referring to diameter?
