I bought a new one-piece from a local vendor. Attempting to put it on over the crankshaft stub I found the hole in it to be 0.015 too small. The sheeve seemed correct in all the other dimensions.

The vendor took it back with the question "Do you want me to have this hole expanded to the proper size." Fearing quality issues in "other" areas of this I declined with "Maybe return this one to YOUR vendor and they can work to increase their quality control?"

If we accept poor quality they will be more than happy to sell us poor quality.
