cluster bush

as in the steel bush in the casing behind the group cluster.
are these available ?
the one on the engine I'm preparing was quite badly pitted, I think the casing had been blasted inside at some point...
so I had a quick look on some sites last night, and thought I saw them listed.
but today i realised i was looking at an end plate bearing track :roll:
shame I'd spent some time earlier attacking the old one with a dremel, after heat and grease/drift methods had failed... so now the one in there is definitely no good... :evil:
[yes, i know mark, you said to make sure I can get another one first... :oops: ]
so, anybody know a source for these ?? or any ideas where i can go from here...
I knew it was all going too well...

Weld a nut to the inside then use a bolt pull it out.
