I suspect all the units sold come from the same source. I think the problem
is that the depth of the groove in the block is inconsistent since the
canister filter housing would reach no matter. Precision on that groove was
not required hence not achieved.

Mitch, I've no direct experience with the TR6 unit. However, Herman van den
Akker mentioned to me just yesterday that he sees a steady stream of people
with them, that need to be remachined in order to fit/seal.
He didn't know which supplier these came from, but since we're closest to
Moss, I'd guess a majority of them came from there.
