I believe you're actually talking about the pulley mount or boss. Probably not too expensive at the dealer, just make sure you give them correct year info. They are different thickness depending on year. I suspect there will be matching wear on the crank nose...

Hi Guys. I took off my crank pully to do the locktight fix and found that the inside of the harmoic balancer where it fits over the crank nose is wallowed out kind of oval. I tried test fitting it over the crank and it wobbles around on the crank. I'm thinking tis might actually be good news because hopefully this is where all of the wobbling I saw was coming from and hopefully not wobling caused by the crank itself. I'm having a hard time finding a replacement balancer ( the center part of the crank pully). Some people sell the pully, but without the balancer part in the middle which is the part I need. Also, the local mazda whecking yard refused to sell one because he said when you need one your crank is about to fail , so he doesn't sell them....... So: Does anyone know where I can get it and what it should cost? Or can I fill the wollowed out part with J B weld or have it welded and grind it down? ( the wallowed out part is worn oval about 1/16 th inch about 1/3 way around the hole.)
