vacum advance + chris + dumbness + pressure = broken vacum advance

I just managed to compress my series II bluebird vacum advance unit so that 
the rear side of it became pushed in (toward the front).  "Damn, oh well, 
I'll just get a new one" that was my original thought but they are $90 new 
from Nissan, and the only person who will sell me one second hand without 
the dizzy is about 1 hour drive away.  GRRRRR.  As i don't actually know 
what the hell is inside the unit's caseing, I was just wondering whether I 
would have broken anything important in doing so (I havn't bent it much - 
it's only bent on the bottom though so it wont screw back onto the dizzy).  
If I can put the mount bracket in a vice, and pull it back out, will there 
be too much damage to even use it?  If i do pull it out, and it is beyond 
repair, can I just bolt it on anyway and just not have a vacum produced - 
and then drive it for a little while?
Thanks for any info - chris.
