Yes, that was me right after I got an upper HE from you. In fact you even 
recommended that I anneal it before using it (heat it up and quench). I used a 
1/8th inch wide strip of 1 1/4 hard drawn copper tubing. This worked great on my 
Notch, as I did the install 2 weeks before the 2004 Invasion. Still no leaks.
