Default 633 Caliper

Has anyone repaired the bleeder valve seat on a "633" disc brake caliper. It looks like someone was trying to drill out a frozen bleeder valve and went too far and hit the seat. I did a leak test and with the bleeder valve screw torqued air is coming out of the middle of the bleeder valve.

It's done. I do not know of a cheap, or easy fix to repair this problem. Your better off getting another core to use. Bill

I was thinking of putting the caliper on a Bridgeport and using an end mill to resurface the seat. The caliper has a date of 59 and is for the left front.
