Almost sounds like they screwed something up and are hiding it until they can find a replacement or fix what they fubar'ed. 28 months is not cool. Especially if you have a friend who had theirs in and out in the same year.

We call that a "mud hog" ...fast material removal.

The factory has a small 90* bracket that is damn near sandwiched between the block and starter...it's a massive bitch to access...which is why most of them don't get reinstalled. I can't help you on the access, except to keep trying. I did one last year and don't remember what it took. Pretty sure it was a 1/2" open end...or box.

I do paint correction and ceramic/graphene coating fairly regularly. It's pretty amazing stuff. I do it on all my drivers...and one of these days my 58 🤣

There is a plastic vacuum tank on the firewall…check to make sure it has a vacuum line feeding it, and that the tank will hold vacuum.

They reproduce one that will bolt in place, but it's spherical, and not the exact same shape.

I spent $6k on paint/primer/clear for the 56 chevy panel truck I did last year. That thing is HUGE, though. Took two gallons each of color and clear alone.
It's not getting any better, either.

A 401 nailhead would be a much easier swap.🙃

Wanted -- 66 Buick Rear CV Joint
in Buick - Post War

You probably already know this, but you’ll likely have to find good used. I had my 62 driveshaft remade without that joint.
There are aftermarket options available if you want to have the shaft completely redone…
