    This problem is common with the three bolt cast aluminum housings. Since they can’t be lapped or machined because of a protrusion on them, I have resorted to mounting them in the press and VERY LIGHTLY apply some pressure to coax them back to their original shape. Being cast, they will break in a heart beat so light pressure is the key here.
