I have an extra one laying around if you want, or NAPA has them for less than $10.
Tip looks fine and the rest of it is smooth all around with no gouges in it. That makes sense the pilot bushing/bearing is my issue. I just hope the dirt grease and grime is an optical illusion its sitting slightly off center and my problems end here. I'll just pick up a new one from the store but thank you.
