FS-cover-mmu2s damaged

I think I've damaged the FS-cover-mmu2s on my new MMU2s - the threaded piece that the PTFE fitting screws into is wobbly. I haven't gotten the MMU2S working smoothly yet but this hasn't seemed to be causing major issues. 

Is this a problem? It does cause the PTFE to not be perpindicular to the extruder sometimes as the threaded piece rocks around in the FS-cover. 

If it is a problem, is it possible to just order a replacement FS-cover?

I would print a new one. STL Files for your MMU2S you can find on the Prusa sites:

Thanks for the link. Do you happen to know if there's any trick to getting the threaded part into the cover? Since the cover and threaded piece came assembled from Prusa originally I'm not sure if it just gets pushed in or what.

You can press it in easily with a vise or a c-clamp.
