hmmmm... well perhaps the pic is a little more distorted than in actuality, as this has just been re-assembled, so am head-scratching a bit why it didn't alert - although perhaps I didn't ask.
It hadn't been used since dismantling in the 70s... and that was why I wanted a quick check of the innards. Which were ok apparently, just needing a shim.
It seems like a new case might be more reliable for the longer term...? I'll add it to the to-do list. Glad I haven't assembled anything more. And I'm guessing 'that' spring pin may be toast now.
