Try what Nagrom suggested, it seems he is familiar and posted you a link about the adapter. The epoxy's strength is my only question, breaking the shell isn't out of the realm of possibility if it is really strong epoxy, I have seen some epoxies for metals that are strong enough to do this. Pressing it out with a good press and machinist that knows what they are doing should be doable, though. Best of luck, how about letting us know what happens with this, please.
