Three ideas: Clean the crank at the grooves until it is bare metal carb cleaner dry. Use devcon, or JB weld to fill the grooves. Use a thin sheetmetal strip wound around the crank and hose clamped down to force the JB weld smoothely into the spiral. Then use fine 400 paper to smooth excess JB.and polish to level with the metal.
Second idea. Make new felt fit the retainer better by wrapping it as needed to keep it from moving, and adding to its compression on the crank. I would use a 5 minute epoxy to keep it straight.
Third is to ask Chicago Rawhide, or National if they have a two piece seal that could be placed such that it does not touch the spiral. Even a backwards facing seal might do well. Jim
