That's a great suggestion. I will probably try that first.

Have a good evening, OEM

There should be a locating Tab/Projection on the side of the Prechamber that would prevent it from being rotated.

Something could be made to do the lapping.

Maybe a spare prechamber and grind the tab off? Unless its real gunky, probably some solvent or light metal polish and a shop rag and a strong finger and wipe around down in there would be sufficient
