You can put grooves in the guide with a demel tool, use a high temperature loctite product making sure all is perfectly clean
Also if you have access from the outside you can drill & tap for a set screw
Thank you for the info

When checking valves make sure the intake valve is not (still) stuck. If it is stuck and rod not bent, then you adjust the lash it will try to push the valve farther than it will go and bend the rod.

Breezing through here it looks like you rather take a stab at a fix here to hold the guide rather than go through the expense and trouble of pulling this apart. I did see where you brought up welding. All that is really necessary here is to create a raised spot so it won't pull through one way or another. That shouldn't take much. Or maybe draw the guide out if you can, do a quick knurl job, maybe lightly peen the bore and reset it.

Thanks for the info. I don't have the tools for knurling so I'm thinking of tapping and install a set screw. I'll either fix it or break it all together.

I drilled through the side put a set screw in. Hopefully it holds. Thanks everyone for your help.
