Hi Steve
Now I understand. I’m guessing that the steel insert is shrunk on so would be pretty difficult to take off without damage.
The only answer I could give is to measure it carefully, dremel it off, then turn a new steel insert on the lathe and shrink it on to the refurbished nose cone.
I’m not sure accuracy is that important as it looks like the steel insert acts like an oil diverter and as long as the cam pulley turns freely the felt should take up any lack of concentricity?
Good luck
Howard
