68gmsee, Thanks. The cover is off. I will tap it out from the inside. I like the idea of leaving it 'loose' when reinstalling the cover, but then I will not be able to put any gasket seal around it, right? I mean, it seems to be a tight fit in the cover. Or, I will put some gasket seal on it, tap it in, and install the cover. I am not sure that the seal will be loose if I have to tap it into the cover.
