I would try drilling to weaken the lever out.

Worth a try - I'll report back!

As noted above, I was about to give up, but first consulted my neighbour, who has what I call "an engineer's eye" and an unrivalled collection of tools. He took the seal holders away and brought them back with the seals removed soon afterwards.

So, no need for new oil seal holders and on we go with the restoration! Thanks to all for your interest - I'm bound to have another insoluble problem soon...

Cheers, Mike

A large hammer and the right size drift!
