Thanks. Been there. I'm coming around to putting a piece of metal in one of the slots to make it a tongue and carefully open up the hole in the head gasket to allow a sleeve to go through. I'm sure that will be OK till I have to rebuild the engine some time in the future. I'll replace A-6551 then!
In fact, as I re read this, I've talked myself into it.
