You can buy Henry products at Home Depot
Essentially that is what I did. I tried to use an insert in the hole,it tightened a little. But before replacing the unit I ran a bead of Dacor self leveling caulk for insurance it won’t leak. Might be the wrong thing to do, but expect rain tomorrow and I will find out.
