Would you be able to cut one out of aluminum? Proably would need it to be hard annodized.

You might want to check out the ITS alignment tool (840965A1). It can be used for all Bravo's and Alpha's. It uses a slide that inserts into the gimbal bearing that the shaft slides thru. If you leave out the slide and put the shaft in the coupler, the shaft should be centered in the gimbal bearing. If not, you can tell which direction the engine has to go to get it to line up. When you think that it's right, push the slide back into the bearing as a final check. It sure is easier than greasing the end to guess which way the alignment is off.
