I wouldn't replace that lip. Use it. It looks like it has stood the test of time.
Never mess with a plugs MOJO.

If you don't want to use that lip I'll swap you an original stainless lip for it.

Pops, do the swap with Bernzy for an original lip. The Moores lip is too big and would have to be ground down. Nobody makes a duplicate of the old CCB pikie lips which is a shame.
