If I was gonna save that lower, I would at least fix the gap.
Using a small carbide round on dremel, cut a groove on the ID for the angle shown. This forms a keyway for JB weld to lock into.
I would then coat that pin with a thin layer of silicone (thin smear with finger) and let that dry for 24hrs.
Smear into the groove JB Weld, just enough to fill the groove, etc.
Insert pin back into position and then fill in the rest of that gap.
Let it dry 24hrs, twist pin out, hand sand the outside, dremel & hand sand the inside.
As needed, use rolled sand paper to clean up the hole ID for clearance purposes.
JB Weld is a bit fluid when 1st mixed, so if using a toothpick to push it into the gap you can mix JB and let it start to stiffen before use.
For small gaps like this I use 3cc syringe with appropriate blunt tip, makes it easy to apply, etc.
After that it should be gtg.
