    Just thinking on my feet about this fault and fix....... All that spacer is/does is exactly what it says. It's a spacer between the full length of the old .303" magazine space and the shorter 7.62mm cartridge within that space. There's no actual load on the spacer as such. The only mechanical 'work' it does is to lift the nose up slightly to head for the chamber.

    So on that basis, a simple EMER soft solder fix is more than adequate
