Really, the only solution is to have your frame repaired properly, by machining out the current aluminum insert and molding a new insert in place. You can perhaps press the bearing in with Loctite 638 and hope for the best, provided the carbon housing around the insert is solid with no cracks. If it were me though, it would bother me while racing more than the $550, or new frame cost out of my pocket.

What BB was in there?

If you use a BB with an adapter that presses into the BB30, using Loctite 638, you will have a much better chance of success.
