Just for fun and to make sure we are talking the same thing. Your emory vs the emery I grew up with
As it turns out, both are good!

I would be happy with a hone if I could get it in there. They even make 38mm brush hones. Problem with emery paper, is that small pieces of the carborundum come away and would need to totally removed. Same if media blasting was used.
Kent at ottosauce says to use 3M Scotch Brite. I have made a first try with that, but that yellow material seems solid. I have a few other options with stuff I have.
- Wrap Scotchbrite around a socket for tight fit and rotate by hand.
- See if I can use rotary 3M flap or brushes that I have with flex drive on rotary tool.
Mainly get cylinder surface clean and free of any "bumps" and especially, clean o-ring slot and the external rust where the boot fits.
