    It could be that the previous owner has filled it with clear paraffin. The filler washer is a small fibre one which you will be able to acquire reasonably easily.

    I will make no comment on the radium in the bowl and swinging card etc etc except to suggest you handle with latex gloves and just brush it clean with your sable hair brush you used to clean out the bowl. You clearly need some assembly guidance. I will PM you.
