Exhaust manifold heat riser rebuild

Has anyone done one of these? Any tips? I didn't see anything when I searched the forums, so I will post any lessons learned. I can get mine freed up, but even after lubrication, it doesn't move freely, and the shaft looks slight bent, so I am going to rebuild the whole thing rather than just replacing the shot spring.

Between this, a rebuilt carb (worn throttle shaft), and a tuneup, I am excited to see how the old girl runs this spring!
