The pin is a simple friction pin driven into the hole. (They call that a drift pin, right? Or do I mis-remember?) IIRC, the pin can be driven in and out of the hole easily, and if I had to guess I'd say the sleeve is necessary only if the hole has been widened from too much pin-driving or if there are several different diameter pins in use. You should be able to tell by feel just how tight it will be. If it won't go in by hand pressure but seems like it will be driveable-in, then I'd say skip the sleeve.
