The famous Clutch rattle on XJ600

Hi there.
Im allmost done repairing my engines starter idler gear, a great thanks to Radare and his "how to do it" guide .
At the same time i have repaired the rattling oil pump drive on the backside of the clutch.
I used a spark erosion machine to repair the worn out hole in the ckutch, The size of the OEM pin is 6,00 mm and the hole was in oval shape/condition measuring 6,11mm
I repaired it with a new pin measuring 6,29mm decreasing the tolerance from 0,3mm to 0,02mm. The parts can be assembled by hand thats not a problem.
My question is, have i done it right or do i get a problem then engine gets warm???
Theres no oil on the engine yet, im waiting for someone to have an opinion (and i also need to clean 153 parts before reassembling )
Best regards Henrik
