That picture is slightly misleading as i had rotated it back to it’s correct position and had test fitted it then took it back off for the photo.
Pushrod rotates easily by hand and the right angle pin is present.
Diagram of slave for info if anybody needs it:
So I’ll take it back off tomorrow and see if that inner un-painted machined part screws in or not or is otherwise damged in anyway. I’ll also check the pushrod rotates easily and that the pin is present (it is) and that the two indents line up. If all of that checks out I’ll just need to run it and get confidence in it again.
