MFI twin plug tin mods Cyl #3

What do you guys do to modify the tin @ #3 on the lower plug. With the tin from factory there is a half circle from machining the lower cover that is not large enough to get the wire end through. As I see it the tin can be hammered out slightly, or cut away enough tin to fit, or cut away and weld a 1/2 circle piece of tin to complete the access hole. Bear in mind that the pump belt cover is a factor in this as well. Solution with pics if possible would be helpful. Thanks.

Thanks Henry,

Looks like a wooden form and a hammer will do that. I tried to post a picture but the system would time out before it loaded.
