Default worn drill press spindle

I have an old Drill press that has slope in the spindle.
I can feel slope when grabbing and moving upper part of the spindle
that comes out of pulley top.

I dissassembled spindle to check for wear. Spindle grooves look perfect
to me.
Here is my question: how worn spindle should look like?

Can it be that it's a worn sleeve causing slope not a spindle?


Thanks!
