[QUOTE="marshman, post: 324260, member: 12129"] its kind of one of those how bad do you want it deals.... a good welding shop can fix that right up for ya....cut the old out, and weld a new one in there... wont be cheap though... you could cut the old tube, out, clean everything up, get it ready to weld the new tube back in and save a little bit... i have no advice on how to get the "flare" reformed...maybe CAREFULLY trim the end off with a cutoff blade being careful to not nick the hull... i think id go the welding route and put a new tube, but im a fabricator and i forget some people arent as handy with grinders and such......i can see how youd have fits trying to get the plug to seat properly..
