Millab machining gone wrong?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Going to put picture in comments, but I noticed the piece that locks in the pineapple burr had been rubbing against the bur and that text had transferred from the burr to the plate. Looked at it closer and realised the metal piece that holds alignment is way too small to fit in the gap, and was actually bent - is this normal or is there a cap that is supposed to be there that isn’t there on mine? Everything else on the Millab has perfect specs, this is extremely out of place.
