How about a piece of copper tubing or similar that will slip over it?

Well, that was my idea...excepting I'm finding nothing of suitable ID/OD

solid brass - drill to fit - or solid aluminum drill to fit, or tube
of either with too small ID and drill to fit.

If had milling or lathe facilities, yes...

If could find something suitable OD already pre-drilled even smaller,
yes, that might be do-able; but so far haven't found the magic part...
