Can I ask whether the wood is actually pressing on the barrel - or is it just the asymmetry you are asking about? If not actually pressing on the barrel, personally, I would ignore the assymetry shown in your photo.

Sorry, I am getting used to this forum, I did not receive any email notifications from this thread so I assumed I put it in the wrong section of the forum.

The wood only contacts the barrel at the bottom. No side/side contact
