There is someone on E-Bay who makes those repairs but I can't find the link right now. Try E-Bay search for Shopsmith repairs and it may pop up. You will have to send yours to him and he will send it back or exchange a repaired one for yours.

YES!
The 'fat' side needs to face the smaller diameter direction of the cam.
