I finally found a fresh set of new plunger caps, supplied by the good folks at BMH Trading.
Nice to have a set that have not been repeatedly bashed with a hammer for the past 66 years.
My question: they are just a sliding fit. How were they intended to stay put ?
My current plan is to glue them in with a dab of Permatex silicon. ( I should own shares in this stuff !)
Any more enlightened suggestions would be welcome.

They should be an interference fit and are normally hammered in with a soft faced mallet. If your 'sliding fit' is close enough I would have thought your idea would be fine, maybe loctite would do the same.
Cheers,
